I’m no artist - but whenever I get a creative idea I go to BLICK for their guidance. They always help me get the items I’ll need to create what I’m envisioning.
Last week I went in and they helped me get the items I’d need to create a headboard for my murphy bed. Got some foam board - chip board and some paint … done!
