the cookies that had baked on it and I loved the way it aged.I planned to use it as a magnet board in my kitchen, but alas, it wasn’t magnetic. I knew I could still bake up something with it – just not cookies. It just needed that chalkboard ingredient!
When my youngest son saw it, he said, “You haven’t baked cookies in forever.” Well, forever is an exaggeration, but not since Christmas and I can’t remember when before that, so this will be a good reminder for me.
I love the chalky residue left by “priming” it with the chalk – it’s almost like flour on the pan.
Since I already had the paint out and didn’t want to clean the brush after using it just that little bit, I looked around for what else, needed a little blackboard love.
I bought a stack of small, old dry erase boards last week and planned to turn them into framed chalkboards, but spotted my stash of old metal clothing hangers. I’d rather have something hanging on the wall than setting somewhere so this was a better choice.
I’ve got chalkboard fever right now, so nothing is safe from my paintbrush.
What a cute idea! When my grandmother died, I inherited most of her kitchen… she has some old pieces that aren’t really cooking-worthy right now, but I had to hang on to them for the sentiment… Maybe I’ll have to do something like this to them! 🙂
I’m following you on Linky Followers from the hop. I’d love if you could stop by Gumdrop Pass and return the love.
Have a good weekend <3
I hope I catch your fever next week, I have a few spots I’d love some chalkboards.

Love these! I really like the way you used a hanger, just gives it that special touch. Very nice.
Sweet idea with the cookie sheet, Angie! I love it! I’m waiting to spray paint a frame for a chalk board. But it is too chilly right now here to spray paint in the garage!! Brrrrr!!! ;0)
I love a chalk board in the kitchen and the old cookie sheet is perfect!
So adorable and that hanger would go well with my hanger collection in my laundry room. Hmmmm

I have “the fever” too…those little clippy hangers come in handy don’t they? Cookies are on the “back burner” at our house too…too many other “projects” taking space in mt brain 🙂 laurel

I have old brown pans and that’s a clever idea! Thank you for sharing at Potpourri Friday!
What an amazing idea – love the cookie sheet! My six year old daughter was sitting next to me and gasped and said, “Oh, that is so cute!!” when she saw it! She is my little baker. May have to borrow that idea. Simple and lovely.
So fantastic! The cookie sheet is such a great idea and how clever of you to use the hanger. Love it! Thanks so much for sharing your creativity with us at Inspiration Friday! 🙂

Did you paint or use stain on the cookie sheet. I love the reddish brown tint.
Lora, no, I didn’t paint or stain it – that’s the way the cookie sheet was when I got it.
