lacy clipboard

i hope it is not getting too boring, because it is another clipboard...but...it is more about the technique than about the clipboard itself...and another but...it turned out sooo beautiful...so i could not resist.

...i did a similar project before, using spraypaint and lace fabric...this time i did not have the right colour of sprayaint on hand and used a lacy plastic placemat, as i really like the pattern.

it is such a great way to beautify nearly anything with an even surface.

have a look and enjoy the tutorial.
