Chalkboard Phobia

I have always wanted to do chalkboard art, but have always been too scarred to actually do it. I usually talk my sister into doing it for me, but not today... I just went for it, I dug deep and thought... What is the worst that could happen? I wipe it off and try again and if it still is bad wipe it off and then talk my sister into it!! Ha!!

 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" Philippians 4:13 

So I jumped on Pinterest and did some "research". I found one to tackle. Start easy right... Or jump right in...


This was done on one of the Hood River Cottage's original kitchen cabinet doors. It was all sanded down and turned into a chalkboard (a past project).  
After I tackled this one I just went on to free hand the chalkboard above the sink (also in Hood River). Here that one is...




And my final one is for above the kitchen cabinet. Just for decor. This was the first day I started staging the cabinet tops, so just visualize a 48" piece of barn wood that says "eat" on it in the middle of the decor...




So this evening was a success!! I have conquered my fear of a chalkboard and I had a blast doing it!! The exciting thing is I can change them often!! 


Thanks for stopping by!!
