Another
project to update the
study space was adding a large chalkboard. I didn’t want to paint the wall. However I did want to cover a large portion
of the wall under the stairs without spending a fortune. I planned to maximize our visual
communication space – while giving the kids an area to practice writing as
well.
The
solution was inexpensive service board from Home Depot, sometimes called Luan board. We purchased a 4x8 sheet for $9 dollars. We measured it against its intended space and
made our adjustments with a utility knife.
Then
added two coats of Chalkboard paint:
Once dry
we attached it to our wall with mirror clips.
In the space....
The kids
are really enjoying this update to their study space. I placed the chalk in the closest bucket –
they use the bottom for artwork and playing hangman with their dad. The top is for keeping us on track with reminders and assignments :)
The space
is really coming together. The new table
and chairs from Ikea have been a great addition as well. Next project curtains!
