then use gorilla glue to glue it on. I have done this before, but i actually nailed this on from the back. glue will do the job just as well though.
{Step 3}
Paint your board however you like then spray it with a clear coat spray paint.

Let's see... I once tried make apple pie for Thanksgiving. While following the recipe I asked my MIL for the salt, she says it's right here, I told her it wasn't enough because I needed 1/4 cup. She asked for the recipe, I only needed 1/4 tsp I ththought I needed cups of everything. So I also had 1/2 cup of cinnamon measured out. Good thing I hadn't combined anything! They still ask for my "special "recipe lol!
O.k. I really am a good cook and baker, but I don't know what got into me to do this.I ran out of oil for brownies. I only had Olive Oil so I said "what the heck, let's try it"...All I can say is ewwwwwwwww......Let's just say I always have vegetable oil handy when making brownies..LOL...ciao4now64@yahoo.com
I love to paint! Every room in my house is a different color. When I was doing my little girl's room, I knew that I wanted something NOT pink. I picked orange. I was going for an inspiring sunset-coral color. It ended up looking like The Home Depot.
Trying to knit (in my school's home ec class)... let's just say that all the other kids were making gloves while it was gently suggested to me that I stick to mittens. LOL. dagmar67 at hotmail dot com
Great idea Mindy! I was just to Morrow's yesterday looking for an old piece of moulding to hang hooks on. One was $40 and falling apart, the other was $60 and covered in lead paint. I'll be going to Lowes today for supplies. Thanks Mindy!
Love it Mindy! True confession: Banana Cream Pie could have been the death of me! Yes, I am a baker, but for some reason I couldn't(for the life of me) get my hubby's favorite dessert right! After many, messy...sloshy...disasters, I finally created a winner! Thanks for your post Min!!!
I loved this DIY!! I did a project while babysitting called "Hot Rocks" that I got from a blog I had been following where you put rocks in the oven and take them out and peel the paper of crayons and draw and the rocks and crayons will melt and make cool colors, well it would have been great, but as I am pulling the baking sheet out of the oven one the kids grabs one of the rocks, needless to say we didn't decorate the rocks that day! He was okay though! Love this project though!!
Most of my DIY's go awry at some level because I'm AWFUL at following directions and like to forge my own path. :) Thankfully I can often salvage my mistakes (such as the nightgown I tried making yesterday that I think I can fix...) I definitely want to try this one for my laundry room!
OK and the Winner is...... dah dah dah!!! Miss Brit!! Congrats my friend! Numero seis (6) was the lucky number today!! wahoo... mama's jealous!!:) Just message Mindy on facebook on how to pick it up:):) Or let me know and I'll hook you two up:)
