Rustic Upcycled Wooden Cutting Board Command Station
Transforming a rustic upcycled wooden cutting board into a charming command station is like giving new life to something old. It not only adds a touch of character to your space but also serves a practical purpose. By repurposing everyday items, you create a unique and personalized decor piece that showcases your creativity. Embrace the beauty of upcycling and let your imagination run wild as you turn ordinary objects into functional works of art that reflect your personality and flair.
Supplies Needed
Remove the backing from the chalkboard paper and press it down onto the wooden heart.
Glue the wooden heart wooden side down onto an upper corner of the cutting board near the handle.
Now, cut a strip of burlap or burlap lace the length of the bottom of the cutting board and glue it to the bottom as a simple decoration.
Attach two circle hooks to the top of the cutting board just below the handle. These may require you to drill a hole to screw them in place. This is just to hold the pen, so it can be glued in place if easier.
On the side opposite the heart, glue a sticky pad.
Next, you will create a pouch using the burlap to fit on the bottom of the board to hold your flower. I used a small potted plant for this, but you can add fake or real flowers, greenery, or a succulent. Cut the burlap into an 6"-8" length depending upon how large you want the pouch.
Glue a length of satin ribbon onto the board where you want your flower pouch. Then glue one side of the burlap down on one edge, making sure there is a good amount tucked under to create a fold.
Glue the bottom and two sides, leaving the top open for your flower.
Put your flowers or greenery inside the pouch, then pull the ribbon up and tie it to form a bow in the center.
Now, you will glue 3-4 clothespins on the opposite side from the flower pouch.
Now, attach a small notepad to them.
Slide a pen into the hooks and write a small message on the chalkboard heart if you want.
Place your upcycled cutting board on the kitchen cabinet to use as needed for keeping track of groceries.
