Saturday was another really dreary day, no sun at all!
I need sunshine!
Decided to make my own “sunshine on a cloudy day” by working on a fun “find it, fix it” project.
A simple message board for my small kitchen.
Found this piece at a community church yard sale some time ago, broken, and missing a section, but I saw potential.
By simply adding a fresh coat of chalkboard paint to the top piece, and a new cork piece, most of the project was completed.
There were many options I could have used for the missing piece on the lower area, adding a small shelf, a wire basket, but eventually decided on just adding a smaller piece of wood, painted, with knobs, hooks, and a large wooden paper clip to hold my post it notes.
The folks at my Home Depot cut the piece of wood I needed. They will make simple straight cuts for you when you purchase wood at their stores, which is so awesome!
So very pleased with the outcome of my “find it, fix it”.
We all need places to pin things, recipes, notes, reminders, and even a sweet photo to spark a bit of joy to our hearts when noticed during our busy days.
Hope you have ways of adding your own “sunshine on a cloudy day”!
Sometimes simple ways of adding “sunshine” are the best.
Have you ever just stopped what you are doing, grabbed a notepad, and begin writing down all the things, at that moment, you have that add “sunshine” to your life.
Try it!
It works!
Love to all.
