Old Winter Barn goes great on a long surface. It is lovely done as a memo board. It can be painted on other surfaces as well. A framed THIN glass pane over the painted panel (or mat board if open & ink) is a great write-on/wipe-off memo board.
 
See all my Memo Boards (some done on panels) and make it reversible! Just Peachy, Old Winter Barn, A Penny For Your Thoughts, Winding Down, Clematis Birdhouses
