Here's a little update on the fabulous chunky gesso frame I bought the other day.
I decided to go with my first thought...
A chalkboard.
One of my sons and I made this frame and actually several other frames, into chalkboards.
I love this frames large size and presence- it has tons of character in the gesso details and is so elegant above the french commode in the dining area.
Here's the chalkboard at Christmas.

I love the gold and haven't painted it white~
I love the tarnished vintage glam old gold frames have.
Here's another one we have in the kitchen...
and love this dainty one for tabletop.
Do you have any old frames you are thinking of making into a chalkboard?
