CHEVRON WHITE/CORK BOARD- Hello Kitty Makeover

THURSDAY, MAY 16, 2013

This is the last of the Hello Kitty how to's

The rest of them are here

This was originally just a white board thrifted for $0.75 minus a discount

which came out to-$0.41 +tx!!!

That's right, under a buck!

This is the before look

I cleaned off the stained board as best as possible.

I then covered it so I could paint it white(craft paint).

While that dried I cut cork board measuring 1/2 of the length of the board.

I still wanted to keep part of the white board.

I had picked up these corkboard sheets for pennies at the salvage sale.

I used my X-acto knife to cut 2 sheets, hot glued them together and then started to mark off the chevron print.

This time I used thick paper to make a triangle and marked lightly with pencil where I wanted my peaks.

I kinda winged it when it came to how close to each other

and how far down.

I painted the outer parts a brighter pink and the inside a lighter one,

including the edges of both layers.

One everything was dry, I distressed the frame a bit and used the glue gun 

to attach the cork to the frame.

That's it!

ALL DONE!
