good-bye gold, hello bulletin board!

I picked up this frame a while ago at the antique mall with the idea of turning it into a bulletin board.

before:


Hubby removed the old mirror, and primered and painted the frame green. We used the old chipboard backing as a template to cut out a new corkboard insert from a roll purchased at the store. We actually ended up using 2 pieces back to back as the insert because it was pretty thin cork. Then we secured the cork in place by reusing the old backing.

after:


from gold gaudy to funky gaudy!
