Fixer Upper-style Chalkboard Shelf {Create and Share Challenge}

Posted on February 25, 2023 by Julie

Are you as crazy about the HGTV show, Fixer Upper as most of the home and garden community seems to be?  I’m seeing mentions of the popular TV show all over the place and everyone seems to be mad for the farmhouse decor style Joanna Gaines is so good at creating.

Today’s project reminds me a little of JoJo’s style when it comes to rustic re-purposing.

It all started when I signed on to a challenge to be creative with this little item I purchased from Amazon.

Repurposed Fall Décor {Hospitality Filled Homes}

Posted on September 14, 2015 by Julie

My husband celebrated his 50th birthday last week.  To celebrate, we held a small party with a few friends and I drew a birthday sign on a large chalk board to wish him a happy birthday.

As I was writing on the board, my daughter told me she thought chalkboard writing is my specialty.  I laughed a little at the thought, but then I decided that she might be right because I love to draw and write on chalk boards.  It makes me re-live my youth a little because art was always my favorite subject.

It only stands to reason, then, that I was all in when chalk boards came in to vogue.

After we remodeled our kitchen last year, I re-purposed a couple of our old cabinet doors and turned them in to chalk boards (you can read about it here). 

Now that Fall is almost here, I was trying to come up with something that would welcome the season while making my home feel cozy and inviting. So, I decided to turn one of the small ones in to a fall “wreath” of sorts to create some re-purposed fall décor:
