Chalkboard Bandwagon

Yep, I'm now on it. Generally, I avoid trends purely because they are trends, but this time, I let that trend in the house and I put right up on the wall. A hardware store's going-out-of-business sale lured me in. I snatched up that chalkboard spray paint at 40% off. Who can say no to that?

It took me a few days to decide what to christen with the chalkboard paint. I contemplated this...

 Isn't it cool?! Kb didn't think so.

I knew I wanted the painted object to display our weekly menu. On the weekends, I plan the meals for the next week and make my grocery list based off of that menu. I write down the meals on the back of my grocery list. Inevitably, I lose the list or it gets thrown away, and sometimes, I can't remember what meals I planned. Writing the meals down on a handy dandy chalkboard would eliminate that problem.

Whilst using the elliptical, I looked out on the porch and saw an old window that I had salvaged from the barn. It was just sitting there, awaiting inspiration. Instantly, I knew. It was meant to be covered in chalkboard paint.

Ta-da! She's rustic, yet edgy. She's functional, yet cosmetic. She's my new fave. Come on now; how could you resist this bandwagon!
