Isn't this lovely and so useful? Easy to do and can be done on a tight budget, just head on down to your local charity shop to find any framed painting
We started with an old painting that had a glass front to the and a nicely shaped frame, Using some chalkboard paint and a sponge, we painted on a few thin coats of chalkboard paint, ensuring it is completely dried before moving on to the next coat. This took three coats to complete
first coat
Final coat and painted frame just prior to waxing with Sparkling Silver Metallic Wax by Autentico Paint. We used French Grey chalk paint by Autentico
Finished product. Before you use it, you do need to "season" it by running a piece of chalk sideways on the chalkboard so avoid seeing the faint lines of previous use, each time you use it. If you'd like to make on in our workshop, contact us as this is something you can easily do during one of our Ladies Nights
