We use every square inch of our 1920's cottage, storage is always about getting creative. For those who live in an older homes I am sure you can relate. Don't get me wrong I do love the house on Grant St.
Notes to the kids and hubby always get lost. I came up with a perfect way to drop a note and it is never missed.
All you need is some blackboard paint and a brush. When painting you will need a couple of coats. The kids love it and so do their friends. I always find the lovliest messages when they are over~
I love this idea!!! Thanks for sharing!

Great idea! I made a huge chalkboard on my boys walls when they were little. I just had to remember to always put a scrap of carpet beneath the area to catch all the falling chalk dust!

Love this idea. I've always wanted to use chalkboard paint in my home. A door would be the perfect spot. :-)
