Thrifted Washboard Makeover With Towel Holder & Photo Display
May 03, 2022
I found another washboard while thrifting.
Another one with a glass board.

After giving the washboard a good cleaning, holes were drilled in the bottom legs of the washboard. A 3/8" metal rod from Menard's was pushed into/hammered into the snug holes.
I then painted the washboard with Dixie Belle Paint in Caviar.
Caviar is an excellent black chalk paint!
I rubbed on a small section of the Delightful Labels transfer from Maisie & Willow. This is a great transfer from small projects painted with dark paint colors.
I hot glued a round craft magnet onto the glass board.
I distressed the chalk paint with a bit of 220 grit sandpaper and waxed the paint with Dixie Belle Best Dang Wax in Clear.
A bulldog clip with a large seed packet was hung on the craft magnet. (A vintage photo is another good choice to display on the magnet.)
I displayed my Place & Time Mason Jar spring towel from Joann Fabrics on the rod.
Washboards are great decor pieces for laundry rooms or mud rooms!
Pin for later.
Thanks for visiting!
