I had a blank space at the end of my kitchen cabinets and wanted to use the space for something cute. After some though I decided to create a chalkboard. I used this chalkboard paint to paint a cabinet end and make it personal to me. The surface was already rough, but clean, and ready to paint. I need easy and this was EASY! Just used tape to keep the wall clean. Two coats. And a Q-tip to clean up your writing. I wrote it out first and started in the middle for each letter. Still not perfect, but that's fine with me. I love it!
Here is the boring end to my cabinets. Crying out for cuteness! Let's create a chalkboard!
I got to work, I first taped the wall edge with masking tape. That blue painter's tape would've been better, but i didn't have any. I used two coats and have a lot left over!
Here's what it looks like after it's completely dry. Then go look on Pinterest and find something clever to write on there.
Like this! Hope you like this and maybe give it a try!

      "I'm sew over this" "I'm sew in love" Lol I'm sure there are better ones on Pinterest! But you can change it whenever you want!
