Inspiration: Chalkboard Love.

I’ve long dreamed of having wall-to-wall chalkboards in every room of my house (well, maybe not the bathroom….?). I get so many ideas and half the time don’t have a pen with me. This way, I could just pick up a piece of chalk (colored chalk, of course…) and write it down, no matter where I was. It must be the writer in me.
What do you think of these chalkboards, friends?
Or ones with frames could be neat too! xoxo

    I love the idea of having a chalkboard calendar! I'll definitely have to try it sometime. The only thing is they can get messy.

    Someday I hope to decorate a kids room with chalkboard paint – how fun would that be for them? Of course, I secretly want some for myself too. So handy!

    Love the idea of chalkboard walls–well maybe not every wall 🙂 I actually used chalkboard paint to paint over an antique mirror that was already framed. It turend out really well, and was an easy project.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog; glad to have found yours, as well.

    I too have been obsessed with chalkboards, especially recently (in the past I have used scrap paper, receipts, whatever i could find!) and I have found some cute ones in the frames like above…and i'm thinking I may even attempt to make one with a vintage frame, paint it and get the board cut to size!

    I couldn't agree more! I've been fantasizing about chalkboard paint so much that I actually bought some a few weeks ago. To be honest, I have no idea what I'm going to do with it…but I'll figure something out. 😉

    Monsieur Louboutin once said, "sexy is too vast to be defined, but more than anything it's an attitude much like elegance." Christian louboutin shoes is the perfect juxtaposition between sexiness and elegance. Whether you dress her up or dress her down, she will add a bit of attitude to any ensemble.
