chalkboard paint : i used spray paint
tape : i used athletic tape
chalk
well ventilated space to paint
stuff to paint: i used a mirror & old picture frame
directions
1. tape off the boarder, or in my case the mirror edge.
2. set up your painting space with drop cloths or cardboard to protect the surfaces
3. shake the can forever
4. apply a few coats after each one dries; patience is needed
5. wait a few hours for the paint to dry completely
6. prep the board by coloring it completely with chalk
7. wipe clean & enjoy.
i am going to use one on the mantle
& the other is just bouncing around the apartment.
i love them & enjoy writing stuff on them.
i dream of the day i can have a chalkboard wall in my home.
have fun.
have you chalkboard painted anything?
