Chalkboard Grocery List: Friday’s Project #2
Another craft-based solution this week! I was looking for a way to keep track of my grocery list that didn’t require losing or misplacing a pad of paper. The solution? Make the inside of a kitchen cupboard into a chalkboard! Easy. As. Pie.
You will need:
- Chalkboard paint—I prefer the brush-on paint, rather than the spray paint, it makes a better surface.
- 3” Foam brush
- Chalk
- Remove the cupboard door—this project is much easier if you remove the door before you begin.
- Sand the inside of the door lightly and wipe away all dust.
- Paint on the chalkboard paint with a foam brush. Mine needed two coats. Make sure you let each coat dry thoroughly between coats.
- Re-hang the door.
- Start making a grocery list!
Instead of transferring the list to paper when you’re headed to the store, save paper and take a quick picture of the list with your phone. Brilliant! Also harder to misplace!
