Antique Mirror Frame Turned Into Magnetic Chalkboard

This empty frame had been gathering dust in the basement, when I got an idea of how to use it upstairs.
We repurposed this antique mirror frame into a magnetic chalkboard. Cut a piece of sheet metal to fit the opening and spray painted it with several layers of chalkboard paint. I attached a small metal container with magnets to the lower left to hold chalk and a small piece of Magic Eraser. We hung it in the hallway. Great for leaving messages or reminders. Adhesive magnets added to small clothespins can hold tickets, etc.
