magnetna tabla/magnetic chalkboard

V kuhinji sem si zelela tablo za po njej pisat z kredo. Se mi je zdelo, da bi znala bit dober center za opomine, pisanje pomembnih datumov, puscanje sporocil. Sem nasla vecji okvir za $4. Na internetu sem poiskala ideje in nasla odlicno porocilo kako naredit magnetno tablo (link). V enem dnevu sem prebarvala okvir in zelezno tablo s crno barvo za pisanje po njej s kredo. Zelezna tabla je potrebna, da je lahko tudi magnetna za pripenjanje listkov na njo. Celoten projekt je bil mnogo cenejsi kot, ce bi kupovala tablo. Okvir, barve in tabla so bile $37.50. Kar je skoraj petkrat cenejse. Komaj cakam, da jo bom lahko zacela uporabljat in mogoce ze jutri zvecer napisem nanjo listo opravkov.

I was wishing for a chalkboard in our kitchen. To make it a center of notes, messages, reminders. I found a picture frame at Salvation Army for $4. On the internet I found great instructions on how to make your own magnetic chalkboard (link). In a day I was able to paint the frame and a galvanized sheet metal. The sheet metal needs to be galvanized if you wish for the chalkboard to be magnetic. I have painted the sheet metal with a black chalk paint in a can. I was able to make three coats of it on 20x36 sized sheet. Making it ourselves proved to be about five times cheaper. For the frame, paint and galvanized sheet we have spent $37.50. I am super excited to start using it and I might write a list of things to-do on it tomorrow night.
