The writing on the wall...

Lately I've been working on a few DIY projects that have added a little personalization to the house and the tiniest bit of organization. 

I've been saving inspiration photos of chalkboards and chalkboard walls for awhile.  They are hot right now, I know.  I try not to do too many trends, but I do think chalkboards have a very classic, nostalgic feel to them.  It makes me think of elementary school, the first day of school, handwriting practice, tiny desks all in a row, brown lunch sacks, kickball, the last day of school, etc.  Mostly great memories...

I decided a chalkboard in the house was a fun way to bring a little whimsy and an easy way for Josh and I to have little fun with each other especially with hectic schedules.  I found a few inspiration photos to win Josh over on a absolute need for one.

Fun, right?  I know!  I'll give you the details of ours and how we made it tomorrow. 

The final inspiration photo that made me smile...


Don't you just love that!?  Me too.  See you tomorrow!
