I was ready to change up my bedroom. So the only logical way to do this was to paint an entire wall with black chalkboard paint. It wasn't hard and I am in love with the results. Here's how to make your own CHALKBOARD WALL!
you will need-
chalkboard paint (found at Home Depot)
paint brush
paint roller
plastic tarp
painter's tape
chalk (of course)
step one-
using painters tape, mask off anything you don't want the black paint all over. Lay down plastic tarp.
step two-
cut around the corners where the paint roller won't fit with paint brush.
step three-
use paint roller to fill in entire wall.
step four-
wait three-four hours before recoating the wall with paint brush and roller.
step five-
let paint dry overnight. then cover in chalk to cure the chalkboard.
step six-
wait twenty minutes before erasing the chalk. in this time, clean up the dust. BEWARE it will be everywhere.
step seven-
erase chalk with a damp rag. be sure to clean rag in between coats.
step seven and one half-
yay! you're done! now it's time to doodle.
step eight-
sit back and enjoy your work.
YES, it's that simple.
