A shabby chic magnet


Shabby-chic-magnet

While rummaging through my "save it for a rainy day" box, I found this small wooden tray (3x3 inches) that was packaging for some wood scrabble tiles from Daiso. So I thought it would be fun to make it into a shabby chic magnet. 


It was brown in colour so I painted it with some blue chalkboard paint, then sanded it to make it look a little old and weathered. Then I dug into my scrap pile to create this sweet collage of random stuff....lace from an old bra, string from a clothing tag etc. *winks*


After that I adhered a sticker magnet to the back and I got myself a shabby chic magnet. :)

Happy week ahead friends!
