After buying the chalkboard paint to make the chalkboard tables, I found myself eyeing all sorts of things to cover in chalkboard paint. I love the idea of chalkboard walls in kitchens and other spaces, but chalkboard paint on a large scale would not work in our home.
I had to improvise, so I ran to Home Depot and picked up some MDF. I bought a small, thin, board for under 5 bucks. I sent the husband to cut it with the table saw in a few different sizes. He has access to the sculpture studio at work, which has an amazing collection of tools. I’m lucky he plays along and takes my projects to cut for me.

Do you find those wall things to hang your items very well? I have been tempted to try them but i have never had very much luck with sticky tack!
Suzy-Q says
I love it too! I painted a board and added it to the back of an old window frame and it turned out great!
