DIY CHALKBOARD FRAME

So, yesterday I wrote about how I wanted to create a chalkboard frame for my kitchen. The rest of the story...from picture frame to chalkboard frame! Here is the 16"x20" frame I purchased from (believe it or not) Joanne Fabrics ON SALE for 40% off ($11.99!!!)   Chalkboard spray paint from Krylon:  $7.99 Directions: For best adhesion, clean glass Shake, shake, shake the can (after ball inside the can begins to rattle) Apply paint to dry surface in a "sweeping" motion Allow 24 hours before initial use Once dry, break in surface by rubbing full area with side of chalk and then erase entire surface Guess what I found this morning as I was getting ready for work??? Isn't he sweet? Here is a distance shot to see where it now resides in our lovely kitchen.  I couldn't be happier with it!!! Just a little doodle... Are there any projects you have done using chalkboard paint? Ha
