New Chalkboard

Lately, I have become obsessed with chalkboards.  I made some framed ones before and loved them so much, I wanted to go bigger with it. I have been researching alot of chalkboards on the walls lately. These are my inspired photo that I found:










and here is what mine looks like:

Before:





and now here's the new wall magnetic chalkboard:





 I'm so loving this it makes my kitchen look so different.  The kids were so excited to start drawing and having some chalkboard fun! It was the best project so far that I could have done for the family!
What do you think?

 Here's where I moved the chalkboard I had in the kitchen before:
this wall had nothing on it, so it was the perfect spot for it.





Have a wonderful week ahead!

  1. I love your Chalkboard. It certainly looks better than mine. I don't think I added enough magnetic paint. I'm thinking it could use a redo her. I linked up too!

  2. Too cute...laundry room...loads of fun ;) I'm in the process of doing the same thing in my kitchen....did you paint the magnetic paint over the entire wall. I bought one can of the magnetic paint and wasn't sure if it was enough? My wall is about the same size as yours ;) Visiting from Chalk Talk and hope you have a wonderful week. Fondly, Roberta

  3. Thanks for the comments.

    Roberta, I used the magnetic paint first, I did two coats and then two coats of the chalkboard paint. Just make sure you sand your walls down enough so its smooth, mine wasn't that smooth, but I love it anyways and so did my kids.

    Hope you both a have a great week! Jamie
