When I finished my new sewing space in our new house, I tried out a fun DIY project that I want to share with you today! It is a DIY Project Dry Erase Board. I’ve been using it to keep my current projects front and center and using it to record my ideas on the spot.

I wanted to test it out and make sure I felt that it was worth sharing but… my quilting friends…

I absolutely LOVE it.

Like, I don’t know how I survived without. It’s been THAT beneficial in my sewing room for the last few months.

How to make your own DIY Project Dry Erase Board

DIY Project Dry Erase Board - How I did it and why I absolutely LOVE it. I don't know how I ever got along without it!

This is what I started with… keep it budget-friendly, An idea to repurpose an old frame and make it so so pretty, because, why not?

I went by the thrift store and found a frame that was from… I’m guessing the 1990s? I don’t know, but it was not anything that would fit my current home decor.

I took out the picture, painted the backing that was already in the frame. (or you could frame some really cute wallpaper?), painted the frame and BOOM 🙂 Instant loveliness.

The frame needed a little cleaning up, but overall it was in good shape and I loved the little carved details on it.

I started with a primer paint that I had on hand just to minimize the number of coats of colored paint I would need to use.

I had these little small containers of paint leftover from another project. It isn’t really a secret that I love pink, right?

I love these little Valspar paints for small projects around the house. (and if you ask my husband, I collect way too many of them)

I highlighted the little corner carvings with the lighter shade of pink and to add a little extra feminine touch to it.
