Super Easy Chalkboard
Unbelievable quick and easy way to make a chalkboard to use anywhere.
This thrift shop find is what I had in mind for a chalkboard because of the ornate frame. I didn't even plan to take the print out of it. Nor did I make any repairs on the frame, leaving it as is, cracks and all.
All I did was clean the frame and glass. Then used painter's tape to protect the frame from any paint.
I've used this chalkboard spray paint before on glass (the teachers' chalkboard painted planters)...so I knew it would hold up on this glass.
And waited for it to dry thoroughly.
Removed the painters' tape and the reveal was very pleasant!
At 16" by 20", I can hang it in the kitchen...
or put on an easel for booth sales or use at yard sales.

I've been meaning to make one of these as a message board for my roommates and I! Going to have to swing by Goodwill and Michaels this weekend! :D
