What Do You Use to Erase You Chalkboard?

Maybe it's because we live in a small town, but a chalkboard eraser was hard to find!
I could've ordered one from our office supply store but not a single store even carried chalkboard erasers. A drive to the city and only one craft store had any and I bought them both! Then ordered a couple more online.
All of them were ugly.
So I made them appealing with wood tops.
By the way, chalk is hard to find around here too!

    Love what you did with the erasers! Around here, chalk is easy to find. Really world and grocery stores, dollar stores, etc. I haven't looked for erasers yet, though.
