Last week I had a fun {girls only} DIY night out at the DIH {Do It Herself} Workshop at The Home Depot! These fabulous chore charts were on the agenda.
The Home Depot supplied most of the materials we needed to complete the project along with a friendly, fun instructor named José. Our group was small {just three of us} but it was really great to spend an evening out of the house, working on a useful project. Who doesn’t need a little tools-included girl time every now and then?
We hammered, sanded, taped …
… and spray-painted but, with a bit of a different idea in mind, I took my chore board home half-finished.
Rather than completing my chore board, I used the same supplies to transform it into an art station.
I repainted the stripes and added some pink vinyl {cut with my Silhouette} …
… then screwed the jars into place where the clothespins were supposed to go …
… and glued the clothespins near the bottom.
I really love the way it turned out and I have the perfect spot in mind for this art station. {Update: pop over and read this post to see how I’m using this art station.}
And I’ll definitely be registering for the next DIH Workshop! Maybe I’ll see you there!
Adorable, Randi! I’m sad I missed getting to DIY with you. Loved how you made the project your own!
What a great idea!! So cute…you should be the one teaching the class!
SO cute! Love what you did with it!
Great DIY. This is a really great idea and too cute
So cute! I was wondering where you got the jars? I would like to use that idea for attaching them to my daughters easel for her markers and such. Thanks in advance! 🙂
Those jars are actually the replacement globes for outdoor jar lights … the kind you’d see hanging right outside the back door. You can find them at The Home Depot in the lighting section. There’s a plastic version as well but I like the glass better.
