I would love to have this in my kitchen and even have another one on my patio. The perfect shabby chic bulletin board. Way to go, I'm going to try to put one of these together this week-end. Thank you!

Love this. I have an old window frame that I've been holding onto for a project & I definitely think I have found this. I love the chicken wire.
