You know I love a challenge and this fun idea is from Wayfair! I can’t wait to show you this transformation, Office Supplies from Cutting Boards
How to Re-Purpose Cutting Boards
I received product and compensation for this blog post and had a lot of fun!
In honor of the great craft swap Wayfair sent me a set of cutting boards and challenged me to repurpose them. I can’t count on one hand the ideas that went through my head, what to do with these?? I was just hoping that it wouldn’t turn out to be a big belly flop!
3 Piece Bamboo Cutting Boards Cutlery Accessory Set
Regular Price: $7.99
If that wasn’t enough to stir my creativity, after I finished repurposing them I had to ship them off to another blogger! A blogger that lives in a beach town. So in the back of my mind, I was thinking beachy. I was hoping I could create something beautiful and useful.
How to transform cutting boards: Supplies
- Chalkboard paint
- Spray paint
- painters tape
- embellishments: shells, sea glass, cork board
- 2 note pads
- hot glue gun
- hardware: cup pull, d-hooks for hanging
- clip board clips
- small screws
Directions
- Tape off the part of the board that you don’t want painted
- Spray paint - (1) board with chalkboard paint and the other (2) what ever color you’d like
- add embellishments, I used shells, sea glass, and cork board
- attach clip board clip to (2) boards with a small screws
- add cork board to (1) board
- add a cup pull to hold chalk on the chalkboard
I packed it all up and shipped it out and I waited…because she was sending me something! And something it was…Rebecca from Rebecca E Parson Cre8tive Compass is a true artist…me just a re-purposer. She took this table cloth, in white:
