inspiration door

I loved Kojodesign's Inspiration Door

so I copied it!

it was too cold for awhile to go outside

so i did inside stuff first

i covered cork tiles with fabric

using spray adhesive

used an old door i found in the alley

painted it antique white
but first sprayed chalkboard paint where i wanted it
then painted the white... so i could cover the overspray



i thought it would be cool to have a spot for magnets
so i had this sheet metal in the basement
from when i made earring holders
so i cut it to size




and cut my dang thumb.
but i'm updated on my tetanus shot
don't worry

not glued in

but what it was going to look like

i used gorilla glue and held the metal down

overnight with bricks

stuff

more coats

tape free

with all the dec's.

i made bunting from paint chip samples

and then sewed them together!

cool fabric on clearance at joannes

also the magnetic clothes pins i got

at michaels for $1

i also screwed in some cup hooks

along the sides for whatevs

i made a chalk holder

i just wrapped a small piece of fabric around the chalk,

then used a double stick piece of tape to hold it down,

then wrapped string around it...

done!

inspired yet?

under the sink redo

our faucet was dripping and wouldn't quit

and apparently the pipes were leaking.

sooooo....

the maintenance guy put in a new faucet

and fixed the pipes.

but it was gross and all rusty.

ewwwwwwww
tools

more tools

after 1 coat!

with stuff back in.

how sad that this makes me so happy!

(fyi, most of the stuff in spray bottles is just vinegar/water/essential oils)
