One of the most surprisingly fun parts about buying a house has been discovering some of the stuff left behind by the previous owner.
It's kind of like finding treasure... although some things take a little more imagination and creativity! Anywho, since I have a little imagination and some creativity, I thought it would be fun, and would help me recharge my battery, to do make use of some of the stuff I've found. And naturally, I'd share them here with you.
Another found treasure. Apparently the previous owner decided to leave it hanging in my bedroom because "it matches the curtains." Indeed. It does match the curtains. But, ahem, is really not my style.
It's actually a pretty big picture. And the frame does have some nice detail:

But I am completely torn about what to do with it! That's where I need your help. Obviously I'm going to paint the frame (probably Parchment White). I keep thinking about making it into a cork board or chalkboard for my new and improved office/craft room. Then I thought of framing a piece of bold fabric or paper... but I'm not sure about it. It is pretty big. I'm not sure if I can get a roll of cork board that will allow me to use 1 whole piece.
What do you think? Any thoughts about how I can use this?

Chalk board!
I have a cute idea for a bulletin board I'll have to tell you about. This frame is pretty.
I really like the chalk board idea... but would you use it?
