Easel to Magnetic Board + Whiteboard Combo By: Derrick

Materials: Algot metal shelves, Dokument pen cups, Mala easel, SLÄTTHULT wall stickers

Had a Mala easel which I had no space to open up and use since moving into my new apartment. After browsing around here for some ideas, decided to disassemble it to make it into a magnetic+whiteboard combo for my daughter’s bedroom.

Steps:

1- Took apart the Mala easel by removing the pen tray and unscrew the hinges at the top

2- Cover up the whiteboard and blackboard with newspapers then painted the wooden frame with the spare pink paint that was used to paint my daughter’s bedroom walls

3- Used 3M double-side tape (those outdoor type with the red peel off backing) to mount the Algot shelves as the magnetic board onto the blackboard portion

4- Decorated the magnetic board with the wall stickers

5- Screwed the Dokument pen cups to the right side of the exposed blackboard

6- Stuck the boards against the bedroom wall with 3M Command stickers at the top (used 3M Command stickers so that it can be removed in future without damaging the wall)

Done!
