I instantly LOVED IT!!!   The chalkboard, that is!!!!  I stood up and made an announcement saying that I was going to do it that week!!!  I don’t know why I did that, but we are a loud family and we get goofy when we are together.  (Plus I think I was drinking a daiquiri, lol!)

I had already bought this paint at a garage sale for like $3.
