If you’d like to make your own, all you need is a cheap bag of plastic eggs and a bag of craft moss.
Also a nail gun, air compressor, jigsaw, router, three saw horses, glue, a mitre saw, and a table saw..He started out by cutting a piece of 1/4″ MDF to the size that he wanted to chalkboard to be..
He also cut a basic frame for the thin MDF out of some 1×4 MDF boards with a routed out inside edge for the thin MDF to sit in.. Because another decorative frame made from molding would be mitred right on top of this stronger structural frame, he made the joint a little fancy to make the whole thing have more structural integrity.. I’m pretty sure he must have invented this joint, but it does the trick!From the side, it looks like a regular mitre, but it’s got the extra little right angled bit that adds extra strength..The decorative molding goes right over top!.
It looks super simple but of course we know that there’s a little bit of DIY magic hiding hiding under that basic molding!.At the bottom, a basic 2×2 piece of lumber allowed him to create a little “sill” for the chalk to sit on.
He finished it off with some more decorative molding.
The end result looks pretty and classic, and it’s exactly what I had in mind!.The painted wall right beside the cabinet?.
If you have Sharpie there, you may just have to repaint that little patch.The rubbing alcohol cleaned the paint away and revealed the weird pinky color that used to be on these walls.. Hmm, OK, well if that didn’t work, how about the stainless steel fridge?.
I’m talking about the scribbles on the left, not the right, just to clarify.The ones on the right are just artwork on a white board, that I apparently didn’t notice when I was taking the picture.
