If you like the retro or "shabby chic" look, it's easy to make a chalk/bulletin board for your kitchen! It's a simple weekend project using recycled bits of wood, a piece of steel cable, metal hooks, chalkboard paint and whatever colours you want to paint your bulletin board. The sweet message written in chalk was waiting upon my return from Spain.







Fabulous!
