Need a little punch in your home décor?
Think chalkboard! Look for old ones or
make new ones. Paint a wall, door, table
top, even a room. Just roll on any color
of flat paint and make anything a chalk
board. You can even paint A mismatched
kitchen appliance or Formica backsplash!
Get the picture?
keep it simple! using a small foam roller
prime your surface ‘well’ with an oil-
based primer and let it dry overnight.
then with a clean foam roller, paint flat
(any color) paint onto your primed
surface. It may take several coats so
Store your roller in a plastic bag in
between coats.
in a nutshell: Chalkboards add a little
fun to any room! Everyone will enjoy it!
my next project? paint the wall above the
chair rail in my dining room. I can hardly
wait to draw, write and erase before
putting everything back in place. After
looking at all these pictures I know I
wont be sorry!
How about you? What would you like to paint?
Funny you should ask? I am thinking about painting my wall in my dining room with black chalk board paint. I just think it would be fun and striking! I just am a little scared- hehe - show me yours when you get finished!!! love you friend
ReplyDeleteDid I just catch a glimpse of my old coffee table??? I have thought about painting the doors that go from my kitchen to my utility room. Like Molly, I want to see what your little project looks like! Love you, my friend!
