House of Cards

My Grammy was always thinking of me.  Any time she’d visit, she’d bring something and say, “oh Kate, do I have something for you….” followed by her sweet chuckle and squinting eyes; truly tickled to find another treasure from her beloved senior center.  This time it was a framed picture, that well, just wasn’t exactly my style.

Bless her sweet heart.  It did have great bones.  So, I took out my sandpaper and got to work.  A little chalkboard paint and a swipe of leftover Benjamin Moore’s Rockport grey (from our breezeway makeover) and bingo, a beautiful framed chalkboard!

Guess it’s true what they say, never judge a book by its cover….er, beauty is in the eye of the beholder…. either way…. 🙂

  1. Hi Kate! 🙂
    I love that you remade this into something that now suits your home, underneath it is still the same thoughtful gift from your grandmother…and that’s what counts!
    I love it as a chalkboard now! On her birthday you could chalk something on it that she would have said?!
    I love the North, South, East, West!
