I’m a big fan of burlap, so I can’t wait to share this project with you. This DIY Stenciled Burlap Magnetic Board is a great project that you can customize for any room in your home. I was thrilled when I happened upon a piece of sheet metal lying around in my parent’s garage because I had a fun project in mind.
DIY Stenciled Burlap Magnet Board
This project was pretty simple and makes a big impact in a space. I think it’s eventually heading to my work space.
I folded the burlap around to the backside of the sheet metal and used a hot glue gun to hold it in place.
I used a pretty stencil and acrylic paint to add some geometric interest.
It’s like a beautiful piece of art on it’s own, but of course it’s a magnetic board as well. I hot glued some magnets onto some paper flowers I made, super cute and so easy to customize.
To attach the ribbon tie I used a hammer and nail to poke holes through the metal. This is a fun project you can easily do! Total work time was probably only 20 minutes (plus paint dry time)… so an easy weekend or even weeknight project.

March 20, 2015 at 5:41 pmCould you be a bit more specific i.e. what stencil did you use, what colour paint for stencil and how di d you get the lines so crisp. I’m a novice stenciller and so far have not had good luck paint bleeding under, etc.

March 21, 2015 at 1:37 pmI used a stencil from Cutting Edge Stencil. I used a combo of different blue acrylic paints to make that paint color. Have a good stencil is important. Also having a good stenciling brush. Bounce the paint (in an up and down motion) first on a paper plate to remove any extra, drippy paint and then use the same bouncing to paint the stencil.
