Recently, my friend Niki was having Bunco night at her house; she asked me to stop in and help her with her entry way. I love a "no cost re-do;" it was so therapeutic for me after a busy week at work! :) A few months before I found this secretary in her attic, and we painted it with leftover paint and stain. She also had an old, gold-framed mirror that wasn't being used. I mentioned that it would make a cute chalkboard, so Niki painted the frame white and used chalkboard paint on the mirror portion. She had these great Walter Anderson prints
(a Mississippi artist:). I love how they add color. I just rearranged the space a bit and hung the wall art. She loved how it turned out (and husbands love when it doesn't cost anything)!
