The Craft Room is under construction.
You'd run, screaming in horror, if you saw the mess.
We'll spare you the trauma and give you a peek at this goodie.
Team Always Nesting put our creative energies to work.
This magnet board is for our new Craft Room.
We had this cabinet piece sitting in the garage, waiting to be loved.
Steve took the first turn and sanded.
Marla used leftover paint from a previous paint-job-gone-bad on the frame
Steve had sheet metal cut from a scrap then he attached it to the frame.
Love it when we are Always Nesting on the same project.
Marla is so jealous that Steve has only a few gray hairs. :)
Magnets are waiting for the special, beautiful artwork from the grandkids.
Love those kids!!
We are still waiting for the paint fairy to do HIS magic so that we can start hanging.
Marla used silver polish to clean the metal.
A hot-tempered man stirs up dissension, but a patient man calms a quarrel.

I love it! I have an extra room that I opted to use for a guest bedroom instead of craft room. But I think this magnetic board would still look great in there...it's full of grandkids photos and artwork already!
ReplyDeleteExcellent project, Marla and Steve! What a great use for this piece and it's a nice big size, too. I'm looking forward to seeing that craft room. I haven't unpacked mine yet {first time I have an actual room}, but I walk by every so often and sigh at it. : )
ReplyDeleteLove it! Can't wait to see the reveal!
ReplyDeleteThats a great new addition to your craft room. I know the whole thing will be just as adorable..

It looks great! I wish my husband were home more during the week. It just helps to have man hands working on stuff, IMO. Plus, you two look like you are really having FUN.
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love it! I shall be having one of those as soon as hubby is recovered and back to his workshop.
ReplyDeleteHey there! Thanks for stopping by my blog! Cute magnet board! Don't worry, my craft space is ALWAYS a total mess. I think in order to create messes have to be made. ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat job, kudos to both of you!
ReplyDeleteNow about that gray hair thing...my hubby hardly has any either..what's the deal there!
Happy Weekend,
Cindy
I love this! It looks so great. Good job!

Hi Sweetums.
ReplyDeletethanks for visiting me about my new garage door.
Just thought I'd mention- you can change just the top panel for one with window inserts- without changing your door. cosr about 150.00 for that if you're interested in doing it. OR- theres a blog somewhere that shows how to do your own. I'll see if I can find her's and post the blog for ya.
as to paint /wax ? you had. I primed/painted 2 coats of berh cool white- now using clear paste wax first- then dark paste wax to show off the details a bit.. the tut for doing this is on
Miss Mustard Seeds blog- on her sideboard..
huggies to Ya'll

ReplyDeleteYou two work wonders together. How I love the way your board turned out.

Hi Marla!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea you were back to blogging again? I'm so happy to see your beautiful blog. Hooray! It looks fabulous (love the pretty design) and I will most definitely be following along. I'm glad we connected on FB and Pinterest too. I love pinning! In fact a little too much I'm afraid. Lol!
Your bulletin board is a wonderful idea for the craft room. I can't wait to see it all. Your hubby did a great job.
Thanks for coming by! I hope to see you often.
Warmly, ~Melissa :)
your craft room is going to be amazing if this is anything to go by! Well done!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes,
Natasha.
I love it...the sides, the color, the checkered HOME...it is very cute! ;D

I am loving the idea of metal boards! The use of things you have laying around is fascinateing!
ReplyDeleteMarla, Marla, Marla, I'm so glad you're back. I didn't realize, as I haven't been blogging much. I've thought of you and wondered about how you were doing. Of course, you're still working your magic on adorable projects! Congratulations to your daughter on her marriage :)
