I have these white Crate and Barrel containers from our wedding registry that are getting discontinued. So I bought way too many so that I will have all I ever need for the rest of my life. I think I might need one more…In the midst of my excitement, since I was going to have all the containers I ever needed for the rest of my life, I decided I needed to label them. I have been putting this off as I am afraid of commitment. I originally was going to print out vinyl letters…but too committal. What if I wanted to change them? So I went for chalkboard. Chalkboard paint? Too committal once again. Especially if they are being discontinued. So I searched for chalkboard adhesive. Michael, Joann, you disappointed me. But good ol’ internet has everything. I found it all here. 6 feet of non-committal chalkboard adhesive with shipping and tax all around 13 buckaroos. Sigh.It pretty much is black contact paper. Advertised as chalkboard yet no where on the packaging said so. I am beginning to think we can find it somewhere even cheaper. Cut…stick…write…wipe off. Easiest chalkboards I have ever made. I even got my compass out to draw a circle. And you thought your fifth grade teacher was crazy for making you use this thing. Yes children, you will use this one day.
A chalkboard plate. I never thought I would see this day. Because I don’t blue tape and paint things. Takes too long. Then I had these little frames I picked up awhile ago. Just put the adhesive straight on the glass…so when I break up with it one day with my non-committal ways, it can still be a frame. And a little one hanging over my aprons in the kitchen…enough said!Exciting, huh? As you can see I went a little chalkboard adhesive crazy. But you can too! One lucky reader is going to win some of this BFF action! Basically I am going to cut some up…however I can to fit it in an envelope and send it to you! How about that! Go ahead and leave a comment below and I will pick a winner in a few days!

Have a great week!
What a fun idea! How generous of you to offer a giveaway too! I bought this gold scalloped plate with a design in the middle that I wanted to paint red or yellow and make a chalkboard out of the middle but was wondering how I would do it. This would be perfect. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is so neat!!
ReplyDeletePersonally I love the little frames. You can find great frames at the dollar store that just need a little paint... except sometimes the glass is in awful conditional. This would be a great answer to that problem!
ReplyDeleteAnd I follow :)
ReplyDeleteLove this, and I need some!

ReplyDeleteCrum - I wrote a comment that never showed up. Boo to that. Well anyways...what I was trying to say...was that I have commitment issues too. I've been going back and forth with wanting to label my sugar/flour/ect jars but like you, wasn't sure how I wanted to go about it. The chalkboard stuff is awesome!!
ReplyDeletethat is seriously cool stuff! I'd love to get some
