Fancy Holiday Chalkboard

/

Here is how to make this adorable chalkboard frame!

  • Take apart a vintage frame (find at garage sales, flea markets, antique stores, etc.) and cut a piece of black board to fit inside (from Home Depot).
  •  Buy some chalkboard paint at Home Depot.
  • To cut the chalkboard, you could use a porter cable multi tool. Then use Liquid Nails to glue the chalkboard into the frame.
  • A hot glue gun works well to glue on a piece of felt for the back. If liquid nails gets on the blackboard side it's easy to clean off with a wet cloth if you do it right away.
  • For the cord to hang the chalk, upholstery trim works nicely (hot glued only the trim not the chalk so the chalk can be swapped out.
  • Make a cute and functional eraser by attaching a piece of felt to a wood block. You can use  a round wood block that has a hole in it, covered both ends in felt and wrapped it and hung it with trim (used hot glue gun). Use trim for a decorative hanger at the top (also hot glued).
