Blackboard paint is a HOT trend at the moment and why shouldn’t it be! It’s practical, it’s fun and it adds some style to a room. Here are 3 awesome ways to use it in your house…
1. Cot-Desk for Kids
This is a great way to re-use that cot your child has grown out of. Remove one side of the cot and place a piece of mdf or particle board on top of the base. Raise the base to the highest newborn setting so it is at a desk-height for kids. Paint the mdf with blackboard paint, buy a couple of low chairs for the cherubs and pass out the chalk! You can always add hooks to hang craft materials and a whiteboard.
2. Wall Calender
For all those visual learners and control freaks out there (umm… me), here is the perfect way to co-ordinate your schedule month-to-month. Painting an over-sized calender on your wall will ensure you never miss an appointment again. The only problem is finding a blank wall in your house.
3. Grocery List
The most common place I have seen blackboard paint used, is in the kitchen. Grocery lists, recipes, little reminders and notes to your beloved are all perfect ways to make use of your blackboard wall
