Entry Table Cont'd

So we couldn't just do one corkboard!! Remember the entry table? It looked a little lonely so we took another frame . . . 

Got some more self adhesive cork board at Target . . .

Some more wonder under and a pretty simple damask stripe fabric . . .

Although this one wasn't as simple as the grey and white corkboard . . . we cut the fabric from the board the first time and not from what would show in the frame so the lines we not centered! And when you DIY with OCD you can not leave it like that!

So attempt two, well it was not successful for other reasons. The board was refusing to fit back into the frame without leaving bubbles in the fabric.

Attempt three was successful . . . 

(p.s. Sorry for the poor quality photo, my camera is dead so we had to do with a camera phone pic)

Remember that mirror?

Yeah this one!! Remember when we said to stay tuned?

Well obviously you would have to stay tuned for the whole dresser/desk project because we have yet to finish them! The dresser ended up being too dark and it has taken me this long to figure out what color I wanted for the desk!!

But we have finished the mirror . . . or shall I say corkboard?

We took off the mirror and painted the frame white . . .

Have you seen this stuff? We found it at Target and it is pretty much self adhesive cork board!! IT IS AMAZING!! 

We took a science board and cut to fit in the frame of the mirror and covered it with this corkboard!!

Then we ironed on some wonder-under onto the cork board . . .

Now we searched and searched and searched some more and I could not find a fabric that I deemed "perfect" enough for my guest bedroom . . . Then Shabby Wendy had an idea!

Some shower curtains are made of fabric maybe someone would have one I like . . .

Sure enough we found this beauty at Target . . .

Well it was a beauty to me . . . I have an obsession with monograms and this had a HUGE 'A' just screaming for me!!

So with the wonder-under in place we then iron the shower curtain on to the cork board.

Then placed the board back into the mirrors frame . . .

And this is the (almost) final project! We think there is an empty space at the head of the frame that needs something . . . but we are in the process of finding something that we can put on there and a matching the same size to put on the bed frame for the guest room! 

Ha talk about a goose chase!!
