CHEVRON. everybody's doing it.  i wanted to paint my desk in gray and white chevron.  but i figured id be over it in 3 6 months. SO instead i opted for chalk.  i was at michael's the other night and saw martha stewart chalk paint in teal that i knew i couldnt leave the store without.  i bought a random frame, gave it a couple coats of the paint, and then chevroned it up. 

fyi: i would use a wooden frame
