We’re in painting moods lately! Last weekend, we repainted our dining room and over this past weekend, a little more painting took place. On Saturday, I painted a magnet board for Vincent’s room.
Before I had my office in the basement, I was using our little desk upstairs to run my stationery shop. I used this board to keep papers and track my current orders. Now that I have a magnetic backsplash, Vincent needs this board more than I do. He has been using the side of the refrigerator to play with his alphabet letters, but many of the letters get kicked under. Enter, the new magnet board. Here it was before I painted.
I picked up Valspar’s Bumblebee Spray paint to use on the frame and used a can of flat white spray paint to paint the metal.
I made a little set up of 5 gallon buckets outside and got ready to paint.
Pass about 10 minutes and I had one coat on the steel and frame.
After letting everything dry for several hours, I popped the steel back in the frame and hung it in the boys’ room. Vincent loves having this in his room and has proudly displayed some of his art.
I do have some more painting to do, so stay tuned for that.
I really like the yellow!
Hi Nikki,
I do too! I plan to add some more to the room, so stay tuned!
Thanks!

Love the yellow….what a nice pop of color in the room!
Where would this world be without spray paint?! Especially yellow… I love how much that frame pops against the wall now!!
Oh, I know! Spraypaint can save almost anything! Thanks for stopping by, Kasey!
Looks so darling. Great idea, I used to hate picking up magnets off the kitchen floor when my son was younger -this is a great solution
