While my kids were out of the house one day, I got a little crazy crafty and painted their bedroom door. It was previously all dark wood, which I didn’t like anyway, so I painted the trim white and the inner panel with black chalkboard paint. I was influenced by my Internet pal Amy, who painted an outdoor chalkboard door at her house.
Doing the lettering is a whole other story. That day, I posted on Instagram, “That chalk art shit you see in restaurants is way harder than it looks.”
This month, I saw all this good stuff from Colorhouse Paint, who makes chalkboard paint in a variety of beautiful colors.
I liked this easy decoration of a wall which could be for a nursery or a home office. Or even better, for those who are using one room for two purposes, this could be a good way to mark the space with personality for each function. Tutorial here >
