Whew! What a ton of great ideas!! I tell you, the hardest thing about putting this round up together was figuring out when to stop. I could have written 100 ways to create a chalkboard. That is, if I had all the time in the world. 🙂

Hopefully you are inspired to go and create something fun this weekend! I’ll be finishing up a farmhouse table I’m making for a friend. It’s just like mine, so it’s gone pretty smoothly so far. Knock on wood. Literally.

  4. I love this post. Never before that chalk before being used for a whole another level. I remember when I was in school the teacher asked me to go up and solve a problem on the chalk board. As a kid I hate writing with chalk on a chalk board. Never thought that chalk board could be these pretty. Thank you so much for sharing this. I love them all…..
