Decorative Monogramed Cutting Board
First I designed the image, I'm sure you could even use an image of your child's art!
I went with a copper colored background
with Black Fluers and Black Monogram
It matches my Kitchen backsplash.
I bought the glass 7.5x7.5 cutting board at the "Dollar Tree"

On the backside or underneath the cutting board
I covered it with Mod Podge to hold my image on.

While MP was still wet, I placed the image and let dry.
Then I covered the image again with MP to seal.
I like it, looks good against my backsplash !
I haven't tested to see how well it has sealed. If it doesn't seal well, I will still use just for decorative purposes. But here you see it as it is meant to be.
Don't you think it's Pretty???
The best part to me, it it cost me a whole one doll-ar!!!
Here is hoping you are having a wonderful weekend!!
awesome project! looks really cool! sure hope it seals well for you! : ) i love the way it looks so either way it is a win win!!! thanks for sharing my friend...sending hugs!
ReplyDeleteThis is soooo cute!!! I already have like 4 cutting boards, but one more couldn't hurt!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a really neat project. I have some of those cutting boards that I don't use and I think I'll try this. It looks cute just as a decorative item. Thanks for sharing. Saw you at Nifty Thrifty...following you via Linky now.
ReplyDeleteLove it! I love quick and simple projects!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great way to spend a dollar!
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic! :) I wonder if knives stay sharp on glass - do you know? Either as decorative or with a purpose - I think it would make a great gift. Thanks for sharing your idea. :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute and creative. I can think of a ton of projects to do with your idea. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteLove how it turned out and love the price. And I think as long as you don't submerge it in water, it should hold up quite well. Thanks for sharing. Visiting from Homemaker on a Dime.
ReplyDeleteTotally love this design! I've made a couple of vinyled cutting boards, but I guess I need to check out Dollar Tree here to see if they have these!
ReplyDeleteI'm now a Linky Follower!

This is so cute! These would be great hostess gifts. I'm pinning this!
ReplyDeleteYou just gave me our Mother's Day gift idea for my girls to give their grandmothers. I love this! I hope I can find some of these clear cutting boards at my Dollar Tree. It's always hit or miss there, but thankfully I have 3 in a short driving distance. I'm going to Pin this!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Theresa's Mixed Nuts. I'm following you back. I can't wait to explore more of your blog!

ReplyDeleteThank you for linking to the Thursday Favorite Things blog hop linky party xo
ReplyDeleteThis is so awesome! It caught my attention because my husband is from Louisiana, so the Fleur runs rampant in our house. :D I'll be on the lookout for a glass cutting board now. Following thru Linky and GFC (I don't like to miss anything!)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!

I put a clear sealer on some coasters to make them water proof. Wonder if you could do the same on the cutting board? Perfect idea for grandma on Mother's day! hand prints or photos of the kids! Oh, the ideas!! Thanks a bunch!!
ReplyDeleteI like this idea. What did you design the background on? I just found you on Mom 4 Real and I am a new follower. Have a great weekend.
