I was wanting to buy some chalkboard paint to make gifts. I came across these super cute ideas and thought I would share. These easy crafts would make great gifts anytime of the year!
Plastic Silver Chalkboard ($2 per each)
Chalkboard Chargers ($1 each at Dollar Store)
Chalkboard Flower Pot ($2 or less)
Mini Chalkboard Art (Chalkboards $1)
Chalkboard Mug (Free Re-Purposed Mug)
Have you heard about Liquid Chalk? These pens would work fabulous for some of these crafts. You can even find them in Neon Colors.
They are a great alternative to the usual chalkboard paint.

those chalk makers are only for writing ON chalkboard, they erase. Dont use them as a substitute for chalkboard paint!

I am lovin’ that silver tray chalkboard. I started making a chalkboard for my kitchen notes using a peel and stick version (not the paint) and I was chewing on some ideas for a cute way to frame it. I’ll be off to the Dollar store and the Goodwill tomorrow to see if I can find something similar for mine. It’s just perfect! Thanks for the idea! 😀

I bought chalkboard paint last year and painted the squares that outstanded in the office and playroom area. I also painted a picture and the frame and have it in the kitchen to write notes and inspiration messages. Very cute!

This could have not come at a more perfect time! I just ordered COLORED chalkboard craft paint, I am talking pink, brown, green, etc. and I just love the mug silhouette idea! Thanks for compiling these! I found the paint by Plaid at Crafts for Less.
