This Chalkboard File Cabinet would take something rather unsightly and turn into a genuinely attractive piece of storage to have in a room. The black chalkboard with the baby pink detailing in this example just looks so sleek and stylish to me, and I am desperate to get one made for myself. I am obsessed with the idea of giving my file cabinet a complete chalkboard style makeover. I love that, in this example, it has been used as a piece of motivational wall art, and you too could do this if you didn’t see yourself using it another way. Because the paint doesn’t cover the whole wall space, it looks far neater being enclosed within a frame.
You could buy some pretty magnets and use this Framed Magnetic Chalkboard as a place to keep letters that need urgently responded to or school forms which need to be filled out so that you don’t forget them.

I have never seen chalkboard paint in a spray form before, so I am happy to have been introduced to that by this Chalkboard Coat Rack DIY.īy the front door is another place, as well as in the kitchen, that I find it incredibly useful to have a chalkboard. Its length also means that it can be multi-use, a kids’ canvas at the bottom and grocery list at the top. Being long and thin it will fit perfectly in little corner spaces, and I already have a small nook of my kitchen designated to housing this. The kind of rustic frame makes it look stylish so that it won’t look out of place or chunky in a room. Leaning Chalkboardīecause this Leaning Chalkboard isn’t intended to be mounted onto a wall, it means that it is quickly moved around the house, something which is extremely handy if you have kids who are desperate to draw on it while you’re trying to get dinner made. You can buy sheets of chalkboard inexpensively in many DIY stores, or just as easily use chalkboard paint on a thick piece of card to fill the frame. Similarly, if you wanted to go for a more toned down look, you would use basic, block color frames to hang your chalkboard in any room of the house.

Especially in the kitchen, they are a fantastic way of making grocery lists that everyone can add to, leaving notes for one another or remembering times and dates. I have a vast range of notebooks which obviously serve the purpose of jotting down notes, but they aren’t then easily visible, and I have to remember which notebook I have written things in.Ĭhalkboards completely eradicate this problem, and I have found having one or two around my house a lifesaver. I am an avid note taker, mainly because my brain sometimes works too fast for me to keep up with it, and if I didn’t write things down, I would never remember them. In my recent, more adult life, however, I have found an entirely new love and need for them: note taking. When I was little, there was a line of chalkboards in one corner of my pre-school, and that is without a doubt where my mom would find me most days when she came to collect me. I used to see chalkboards as a somewhat messy canvas on which children would express their creativity with colorful, dust evoking chalks.
