Old cake pans can be found in abundance at thrift stores, flea markets, Craigslist, and more. Cover one side with a minimum of three coats of chalkboard paint. I recommend taping the pan off well and using the spray paint version for a smoother finish.
The best part is most cake pans are made of steel so magnets will stick right to them.
Do you think I could pass this one off as a "C" for Candy?
As always, take care and keep on junking!

I love this idea. But, what I love even more is that you used the word "serendipitous". This word rocks, and maybe we should try to use it every post. Seriously. ~Mindy
ReplyDeleteI love this--must go find cool cake pans now--and just think of the calories we will save painting them instead of making cakes in them???
ReplyDeletewhat a fabulous idea!

You found a great, old pan. As much as I love your idea, as a former cake decorator it breaks my heart to see it recycled! But then original owners of all my "junk" probably feel the same way when they see my recycled stuff. I think it really works as a 'C'!
