My vision for this treasure was to use the frame for a chalkboard that I could use in my office and at shows. So a little bit of chalkboard paint {I prefer the brush on vs. the spray on}...
{via} |
...painted on some plywood. {3 coats, sanded in between with a lightweight sandpaper, gives the best finish.}
and voila!
Doesn't Ali have the BEST handwriting. We used one of these chalkboard markers to write on the board.
For now, in my office, I have the chalkboard propped up on a chair, I haven't quite committed to where I want it on the wall, lathe and plaster walls are not forgiving.
Of course I would LOVE to score an old slate chalkboard some day, then maybe I will turn this into a mirror or something, oh the possibilites!
Happy Wednesday.
Best,
Kirsty
