PARTY PICKS: Chalk It Up!

Due to the fact that it is back to school season, my party pick is chalkboard inspirations. Ever since chalkboard paint became available in craft and hardware stores everywhere, I have been obsessed! I re-painted my office desk, drawing easel, tables and party decor to resemble chalkboards. The chalkboard "look" can be achieved in many ways by using products such as a vinyl decal, label sticker, spray paint, brush on paint, craft paint, marker, powder, fabric, ink or contact paper. There is also a DIY tutorial about how to make chalkboard paint. Plus instead of traditional black, you can also choose from a variety of color tints. Below is a collection of chalkboard inspired ideas that could easily be incorporated into any special occasion. Leave a comment and tell us how you like to Chalk It Up!
