There?s something about chalkboard paint that I just love. It reminds me of my childhood and days spent at school, all happy memories.
Nowadays it would be difficult to find a classroom that still relied on it’s chalkboard but that doesn’t mean they don’t have a place at home. In fact I was surprised by all the things that I could use it for and have a tin of chalkboard paint waiting for delivery as we speak.
It took me ages to narrow it down to my 9 favourites because it’s so versatile but here’s what I’ve picked:
Jar label by?Cape27
Cheese board by Wit & Whistle
Chalkboard mugs by Shelterness
Plant markers by Stitchcake
Coasters by Westermanfam
Plant pot by?Scissors & Spatulas
Gift tag by Rusticblend
Chalkboard wall by Desire to Inspire
Play table by I Heart Organizing
So far I’ve decided I’m?definitely?painting one of our kitchen walls with it and making some jar labels, then I’ll see how much is left for another project.
If you’re looking for some more ideas?Pinterest?is always the place to go. Do let me know if you try any of them!

I would love to have a wall in my kitchen painted with chalkboard paint! :D
Vicki says
I’ll be sure to post photos on my blog when it’s done. (I’m at alifeofgeekery.blogspot.co.uk ) I wonder how hard it would be to paint over when we came to redecorate?
Rachel says
Such cute ideas. I love the car table.
Robin says
All cool ideas. One of the shows that my kids watch on the Disney Channel (Good Luck Charlie) has the familys fridge painted with chalkboard paint and they write notes & keep their calendar on it. I always think to myself what a great idea that would be.
Vicki says
That would be such a cool way to update a tired looking fridge!
Brandy says
How fun. I agree I’d LOVE to have a wall in my kitchen with just chalkboard paint.
Sara says
I love the idea of chalkboard “things.” I remember seeing a chalkboard wall that kids could grow on!
Jennifer says
I love chalkboard paint. I have never personally used it but that’s out of fear. Fear that if I start with one thing I might do the whole house, lol

I love the table for kids!

I love it too, at our old house we had a wall in the playroom painted with it.
Kelly @ Texas Type A Mom says
These are great ideas! I’ve been looking into the chalkboard spray paint since it’s a little more budget friendly but so many customizable options.
Shell Fruscione says
These are all GREAT ideas! I’m so boring- the only one I’d thought of was painting a door or the walls. I love all the different uses!
Kristi says
I love this! Especially the cheese plate.
