Back before Christmas when everyone was asking “what in the world can I get you for Christmas”, my response was always the same. “Just go to the thrift store and buy me any old piece of wood furniture”.
Well my sister did just that.
Remember these:
I believe everyone has had one at some point in time. If not I’m pretty sure your mother did.
Anyway, this magazine rack sat and sat and sat until I could figure out what I wanted to do with it. I didn’t really need a magazine rack…but what I did need was to organize my muffin and cake pans.
That’s right. Now stay with me for a few minutes because I know what you are thinking.
My muffin and cake pan organization before was a complete mess.

This is NOT my cabinet because again, I forgot to take a picture.
But this one is close to what mine looked liked.
Just stacks of pans.
Anyway…I took my little wooden magazine rack, cleaned it up and gave it some paint. I started out using chalk paint but by the time I got around to the inside of the rack, the top of my hand just wouldn’t stay clean. I gave up and grabbed some Krylon White in flat because really isn’t flat paint chalky anyway.
Next I found me some cute graphics and used the chalk method to transfer it to the wood.
I then distressed it with sandpaper and sprayed it with Polyacrylic in satin.
I love how it turned out.
Sorry my pictures are crappy. And small. I’m lazy.
Whatever.
So a great big thanks goes out to my sister for thrifting this little magazine holder.
Maybe…just maybe…I’ll bake you a cake.
Or not.
