When we remodeled our kitchen this summer we were left with a few unusual “leftovers.”

As I mentioned, we didn’t completely gut our kitchen, but we did re-configure a few cabinets.  As a result, I have four drawers and about 8 cabinet door/drawer fronts laying around.  

My husband thought they were ready for the junk pile when they didn’t sell on Craig’s List but my wheels were already turning. Today I’m sharing my recycled cabinet doors DIY project:

Who doesn’t love a chalk board, right?  

This couldn’t be an easier way to use an old cabinet door.  You can paint the “frame” a color, do nothing, or — what I did — add a little antiquing wax to liven up the old stain.  

It’s so easy to just paint a little chalk board paint in the center to make a cute little chalk board.  So simple!  As you know, I love projects that are quick and easy.

I have a few more ideas up my sleeve, which is good because I have a few more doors sitting around taking up space!  I’ll be sharing them soon.
