Chalkboard fun!
They are east to make. Just find some old frames at the thrift store, paint them and add chalk paint. I used the brush on type. It's messy, but the results are worth it.

I've been a blog slug lately with not much to show and talk about.
I'll be meeting with my sister and brother this weekend and we are going to Shop. Eat. Laugh. Repeat!
We are going to the Raleigh Flea Market and hopefully will find some treasures. Then.....I'll have something to blog about!

I love chalk-boards and these are really pretty.
Sissie I love your chalkboards. What brand of paint do you use? hugs, Linda
I like doing chalkboards but I usually use the spray. I just find it easier. I already make enough of a mess so spray is better for me.
I love your chalkboards! A great idea!
LOVE these! I just finished a large one for my dining room.
Sometimes we all need some slug time, you know? Have fun with your sister and brother. How wonderful is that! xo Diana
You are so smart Miss Sissie.
What a great, manageable idea!
Plus the chalkboards are the right size.
I don't need a huge one- yours are great.

Oh, can't wait to see your new treasures! I love your chalkboards. I am going to have to try the brush on chalkboard paint, it took a lot of coats with the spray,

Love your chalk boards Sissie! Have fun this weekend and I hope you find lots of pretty treasures!
Lovely chalkboards Sissie! They were a big seller at my last market, I also prefer to brush on the paint. You found such pretty frames:-)

Beautiful chalkboards Sissie. I think I'm going to make one. The more I see them the more I want one. Am I impressionable or copycat? lol.
Have a blast with your sister Sissie...but I know that goes without saying : )
I love your chalkboards!
Blog slug..that would be me too.
sending hugs...
Love 'em, Sissie! Gotta find great frames like you do. They seem to have such plain ones at the GW here. I keep looking though! : ) Have fun!
Well you know how much I love chalkboards, Sissie, and yours are great! I've had mixed luck with the brush on kind of chalkboard paint, though. I found out the hard way that using a roller is not the best way to apply the paint! It creates little air bubbles that pop, then show up when the paint dries! ugh! Have a great weekend!
So sounds like the paint on chalkboard paint is better? I always wondered. I always use the spray--because it is so easy.
Love this chalkboards. Great idea.

Soon I am going to show a chalk board I am working on and I must say, it is going to be cute!! I am excited about it!
Have fun on your girl's DAY OUT!!
Hi Sissie! Chalkboards have been on my to-do list for some time now! Yours are superb and I love the clever tags you've tied to them! I have to say...I was so tickled by the comment you left me this afternoon! I have felt the same way about so many of the beautiful items you have created and posted about! You are such a dear!
Best Wishes and Blessings,
