How to make your own blackboard in just ten minutes



Good morning everyone!
Finally the sun is back in south Norway!

Here's a quick tutorial of how to make your own recipe blackboard (or notes/grocery list/ phone list - or whatever you wish to remember!)

You need:
  1. An old frame
  2. Smooth surface for the blackboard (I used the bottom of an old crate)
  3. Hammer, nails, saw, brushes, black paint (I used dark purple)

How I made my own recipe board in just five minutes:

  • Get all you stuff ready. Cut the board to fit the frame (remember to add a little on the edges so you can fasten it securely)

  • Paint the back of the blackboard in a dark color. Use the hammer and nail the back of the board to the frame, being careful you use small enough nails so they won't damage the vintage frame you've chosen!

  • Hang your new blackboard on your wall.




Aaaaand... You're done! Can it get any easier? Now all you have to do is sit back and relax.

Or make muffins ;)
