I think people have a love - hate relationship with chalkboard paint. I fall into the lovvvve category. I just love it in small doses because it adds instant personality to ordinary objects. I do not have enough guts to paint a whole wall with it {perhaps one day in a playroom though} but for now I want it somewhere small. I like how in some spaces it gives the room a playful feel…although since I am clean freak my chalkboard wall would have to be clean…not that smudgy look. I really enjoy it on labels…like on your kitchen canisters. All you would have to do is purchase glass ones from Ikea and add this yourself with paint. I am going to do this one day in my pantry. That sounds like a good summer project!
How precious are those tags?

Isn't this crazy? Laura, who is a designer, painted her white refrigerator with it. She also painted her dishwasher the same color as her cabients. Very clever. |
It looks fantastic in that gold frame! She bought an antique mirror and just busted out the mirror and painted the backer board with chalkboard paint.
