Cake Diet
Want to go on a cake diet? Turn your cake pan into a message center!
Actually I picked this oversized cake pan up at the thrift store. I lightly sanded the inside bottom, used primer and 2 coats of chalkboard paint. As we have established, I am cheap, that is why I use the brush on chalkboard paint--it costs so much less than the spray paint. I added a ribbon around the edge and as a hanger. What I love is that it is both a chalkboard and a magnet board.

By the way, I having been forgetting my 100 ideas under $100 countdown. The PB BB was idea #14 and the burlap pillow was #15 so this idea #16--84 to go!

ReplyDeleteVery cute idea! How clever. That would be so fun to do with a vintage cake pan.

ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful and low-cal idea!!! I love how the edge of the cake pan lends itself to holding the chalk. :) Brilliant work my dear. Might have to steal this idea. :)

ReplyDeleteLove love love this! I can't wait to make one.
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute. I just stumbled upon your blog... so glad I did.
ReplyDeleteI would have never thought of that! That is so creative plus you repurposed the cake pan. I am always amazed when people can make burlap look so elegant. I will have to figure out something to so with that material. Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog and for leaving a comment.
