Cafe Style Framed Blackboards

I bought 3 huge framed prints off ebay for $7.68. With a bit of coaxing, the prints peeled off. I painted the thick cardboard that the prints were stuck to with 2 coats of blackboard paint. 2 of the frames I spray painted gold & the other I painted flat white. The plan is to keep the flat white one & sell off the gold ones.





These should look cute stuck above a buffet. I'm looking forward to hanging ours in the new house!

Total Cost for 3 blackboards: Frames $7.70 paint $18ish = $25.70 or $8.55 each
I sold 2 of the 3 blackboards on ebay and made $88

So... all in all I'm up $60 and technically got a free blackboard out of it.
