I also envisioned creating some beautiful Christmas chalkboard art on it, and even came up with a design, but my drawing skills are pitiful and I kept messing it up, so I gave up and just decided to keep it simple with the word, “joy”. Simple is good, right?
The frame is lovely old oak, with beautiful details.
I’ve mentioned before how much I love Picmonkey, and this is why. This wall has our ugly thermostat, 2 light switches (one of which isn’t connected to a light, and 2 ugly brown outlets on it. With Picmonkey, I can magically make it all disappear! I wish I could use Picmonkey to clean my whole house.
I know you’ve been seeing Christmas trees on every blog in blogland and all over Pinterest, but this year I decorated our tree very differently than it’s ever been decorated, and I hope to show it to you soon. It’s totally decorated in my style and I’m a little giddy about it.
I’m going to attempt to photograph it tomorrow. Wish me luck, as taking pictures of a tree with lights is uncharted territory for me, so if you don’t see a blog post about my tree soon, you’ll know I couldn’t get a single decent photo and am too embarrassed to show you.
Blessings,

I love your repurposed chalkboard and I love, love that it simply says joy! It’s actually very eye catching…sometimes one word says it all. Can’t wait to see your tree. Bet it’s fantastic!
You find the neatest things Angie … love how you re-purposed the frame into a chalkboard.
Blessings and happy Christmas season.

Oh that is one beautiful chalkboard…the ornamentation on the wood is wonderful!
Picmonkey to the rescue again. I love your chalkboard and the beautiful natural wood finish.
Okay, now you make me want to start going back to the thrift store. I quit going because I could never find anything worth buying! Great look!
Love it. So much better this way than just another mirror!
I <3 chalkboards and your is fab!!
Wonderful! I love the chalkboard and that mirror, well that makes me swoon!
A two-fer! Great deal – the mirror is lovely by itself and I love the frame made into a chalkboard. JOY!
I love that chalkboard, the frame is amazing!
