I {heart} TRASH

I think this
Macintosh Apples sign/Chalkboard
was worth $0.50 dont you?
I know the web is in some sort of a chalkboard frenzy, but I'm actually {not} a big chalkboard fan. Dont get me wrong, I think everyone's projects have been beautiful, but I hate the FEELING of a peice of chalk and a chalkboard. KUH KUH! And dont get me started on the eraser. (shivers silently).
So HERE WE GO! Lets start out with some SPRAY PAINT. Umm...black...again.
I wasn't too worried about the centers because I'll be covering them up here soon.
***
So why do I have this picture of a can of FORMULA?
Because HOW COOL would it LOOK to have those "Peel off metal tops" glued to the centers?
(Not very cool, I know).
It's just SO fun to recylce TRASH (literally). Kind of like when I used an old red binder to design THIS...
Do you think I'm crazy? Good.
Well I covered up those very uncool can lids with some very PERTY paper and spray adhesive.
I {heart} paper.
Doesn't it look FAB?!!!

Dont stop there!
B*CUZ It's a
MAGNET BOARD!

No, those aren't pins...those are just the neatest magnets in the whole wide world! (and very strong)
