My favorite color is seagreen. And lucky for me, it's come into style! Hopefully I won't get sick of it being everywhere though... I have been dying to figure out a way to bring some of this color into our home, and since we are only renting currently, I can't exactly paint walls with it. Then I came across this on Pinterest (go figure).
Martha Stewart strikes again! I loved this idea, and I decided to do my own version in a somewhat less permanent way. And with my favorite color too!
Sorry the picture is pretty bad, but you can get the general idea. I made the frame and added some edging to make it look a bit better and attached an mdf board to the back. I painted the board and frame initially with magnetic primer and then used paint and grout to make it a chalkboard as well. You can see the dates written in much better in person, but I'll probably use a different colored chalk or make magnetic numbers just so it does show up better. Cool huh? And now I have a bit of my favorite color in my house and it can travel with me wherever we may move. :)
