This is something along the same lines of what I posted earlier this week.  I loved, loved, loved how it turned out.  I gave this to my sister-in-law for Christmas.  This frame was bought at Goodwill for like $3.  There were actually two, exactly the same.  In the other one I removed the glass, put in corkboard that you can buy at Walmart, and wa-la...a matching bulletin board to go with her menu board!  She was beyond thrilled! 

I am a little disappointed with the coloring in this picture but you can get an idea at least.  I spraypainted the frame, after using a little sandpaper on it, the aqua blue color (from Walmart).  I then used a walnut stain that I rubbed on and rubbed off, which antiqued the frame bit.  Like on my other project, I put burlap behind the glass, cut the word MENU from black flannel, and cut the typeset letters using this printable from my favorite blog, Under the Table Dreaming, from which this whole idea came.  I hope you feel inspired to make your meal prep or kitchen a little more exciting!  I now need to make one for myself!
