DIY Chalkboard Paint
It's Saturday and I'm feeling projecty. It's also April and it's been snowing for 3 days now! So since I won't be kicking any projects off at my house today I might as well kick this puppy out of my drafts and pretend I painted something! (while in the meantime I stay in my jammies, make cookies and watch movies all day).
I have a love of chalkboard paint. We had a room in our basement that had chair rail around the middle and hideous wall paper around the top and really dark nasty paint around the bottom. Since we were going to use this room for a playroom we tore the wallpaper off the top and used chalkboard paint from Home Depot around the bottom. We've loved it. And I continue to love chalkboard paint.
Here are a few other DIY ideas for what you can do with chalkboard paint:

So for today, I'm just going to pretend that I did something wonderfully crafty and fabulous . . . and just hope that I get my teeth brushed.
