Something’s Missing

It feels sooo good to feel good!

I’ve been under the weather and just started feeling like myself again this past weekend.

I’ve spent a lot of time resting, napping, and sleeping and when I finally came out of it I was quite disappointed that winter was still here.

Oh well, a girl can only hibernate for so long…. even when she’s sick.

I don’t have much to show for the last two weeks except this project that is finished, but somehow not finished at the same time.

Here’s the before.

I covered the middle area and spray painted it with a lovely white paint and primer combo.

 

Then I covered the outer area and spray painted the centre with chalkboard paint. I did three coats, following the directions on the can.

 

I’m at a loss at what to do next. Maybe it’s because I lost a few creative brain cells when I was sick… maybe more than a few.

But it seems like something’s missing to me.  It doesn’t seem finished.

It needs some colour or something. But what?

Any suggestions???

  1. First thing that came to mind; if possible was to make it into a clock or secure a round mirror in the center

  2. It needs a happy face! So glad you're back! I missed you!

  3. Glad you are feeling better!!. It's cute the way it is. Just needs some chalk art!

  4. So glad you are back. Just a narrow border around the chalkboard wold look great. and you know I would have to put something rusty hanging from it. Cannot tell how large it is., but a maybe a border of silverware?

  5. I know what's missing – the package this baby gets wrapped up in to be sent to my black and white kitchen – that's what's missing !!!!!!!!!
    ( don't have a heart attack or anything – but I'm taking time today to actually visit my favorite blogs lol )

  6. So many neat things can hang from that! What a great piece to dress up seasonally.

  7. I'd put a huge smiley face in it, but I'm a complete dork. 🙂 Glad you're feeling better!

  9. Oh my dear Tuula..it's missing some bling. You got sick and lost your sparkle. I hope you get it back soon!

  10. could also put a nice saying; favorite sentiment;on it, make into a 'Welcome' sign, or family photo

  11. I'm so sorry you were sick. I'm glad you're feeling better! I like the flower chalkboard as is. Maybe a hanger with a cute saying. It's so cute!
