Chalkboard Dreams
This is close to perfection for me.
I have this dream of chalkboard. I want chalkboard everywhere in my home. It has always been a childhood dream of mine.....although, there is one tiny little problem. I need to compromise with my significant other, who thinks that more than one room with chalkboard paint is a bit too much. So, since we are slowly renovating our home,
I am trying to decide which room is the best place for
chalkboard paint.
I am trying to decide which room is the best place for
chalkboard paint.
I would love to have chalkboard paint on our front door to write messages and little notes, however, we just got a new front door and I'm one hundred per cent sure that it's not in the cards. The other place I would like to have chalkboard paint is in our kitchen and office/art room; but since I can only have it in one room - which one? Dilemma. The kitchen would be a great place to put chalkboard paint, where I could write messages and recipes, which would be really handy and efficient. Although, one in my office would be nice, so I can write notes, to do lists, inspirational quotes and draw. This would definitely bring me some joy.
So, here are some marvelous ways people have used chalkboard paint.
It can be used anywhere.....in the home, at the office, on furniture and anything else you can think of.

ReplyDeleteHey Reese, did I mention that we are renovating our house now! We took possession in on St. Patty's day and have since been hard at work gutting the place, and putting it back together again! I'll send you pics. Too bad I didn't see the chalk board post until today, altho' I don't think D would go for it!
ReplyDeleteHi Reese, I can see what you have in mind! I have to admit that after having been a teacher for all these many years I just hate chalk and blackboards! Not that fond of whiteboards either! But I do not mean to rain on your parade!!! I think the IDEA is neat!
ReplyDeleteThanks Everyone!
ReplyDeleteI knew I wasn't the only one. We should start a chalkboard club! :-))
ahhh, found you on GFCBlog and LOVE your blog!!!
ReplyDeleteThose pictures are so amazing. I am a fan of chalkboard too, but I think my somewhat latent fear of nails scratching on a chalkboard keeps me from doing it.
