She looks pretty pleased with herself. And why shouldn't she be? She's perfection. Here's how I transformed her: I picked her up off of the side of the road and brought her home. I used some all purpose cleaner, a brush, and a hose (set on a gentle spray) to clean her up. I was ... Read More about Turning Your Old Window Into a Chalkboard
