Supplies:
– Frame
– Adorable Polka Dot Burlap (I got mine at Joann’s)
– Clothespins
– Chalkboard ornaments (also at Joann’s)
– Hot glue gun
Tutorial:
First just cut out some rectangles from your burlap. I just laid my chalkboard ornament on there and cut around making sure it was big enough : ) I have to say, I am in love with this burlap. I made some burlap stockings a few years ago, and I wish this existed then. Wouldn’t it make adorable stockings?
Then I just applied some hot glue to the clothespins and stuck it straight on the screen. To make sure it was sturdy, I applied some glue on the back of the screen as well.
Once you have it glued on just hang your burlap and chalkboard ornament from your clothespin and write your letters on the adorable little mini chalkboard. Can’t get much easier than that! I try to keep it simple these days. It seems I can barely get food on the table, much less keep the house clean, work on my blog, and decorate. These kiddos keep me busy! But with just a few extra minutes you can have a cute new Joy sign for Christmas!
Have a fabulous day!
Very cute sign! We can even upcycle an old window sill for the frame 🙂
Hi Ashley, This is a wonderful idea! Thank you for sharing!
Love that this was created with a vintage screen.
Doesn’t that old screen make it absolutely beautiful? I love vintage touches like that!
Oh my goodness – I absolutely LOVE this!! What a fabulous idea for using those cute little chalkboards.
Adorable right?? My poor house is going to be overtaken by chalkboards this year!
