A Little of This and a Little of That

I had the itch to work on a project, but not a ton of time (story of my life!), so I gathered up a few things I had in the garage:
  • an MDF board that my DH had routered for me
  • some leftover white paint and a little glaze and top coat from my Rustoleum Cabinet Transformations kit (more on that in another post!)
  • AND some old door knobs I picked up at Second Use.
I painted the board with two coats of white paint and let it dry thoroughly.  Using an orbital sander, I distressed the board and then used the glaze to "age" it.  Once I had it looking the way I wanted, I let that dry and then put on two layers of top coat.  My hubby drilled the holes and attached the knobs for me. Here's what I ended up with:




Well, what do you think?

It's hanging in my kitchen.  I'm on the hunt for some vintage aprons - or great fabric to make my own.

I hope you're having a great day!

Go create something!
