So Caleigh's room is closing in on being done. We've almost finished the bathroom in the playroom. We just need to add a few shelves, throw up some photos and whola it will be done.
But I've found something exciting.....
I'm obsessed and very intrigued...
So here's the side of our hand-me-down refrigerator. Circa 1981 and it still blows cold baby. What a champ. I particularly like the creamy ivory color with black plastic panels on the front. arguhmm......
What did I find? Chalkboard Paint!
It was extremely easy to apply. Very thick. I didn't even blink an eye, but maybe the age of the fridge made it an easy choice.
After the paint dries your supposed to "prime" it with a good coat of chalk.
After that your good to go. To Do lists. Supply Lists. Caleigh's Magnets. Doodles. Anything else fun you can think of.
I'm loving it. I want to paint everything with this stuff!
Currently, I have a date with a large piece of sheet metal and a fresh can of chalkboard paint. I can't wait to see what happens.....

Fabulous! You just reminded me that we made our own magnet board with a ledge from sheet metal when CollegeSon was about 2 years old. Sweet memory! Thanks! Barbara
I love chalk board paint! I did a big square in the boy's room & its a hit. Wish my hubby would let me paint our fridge- maybe one day...
Love it!! It looks so good and you did a great job. I would really like to do it too, but my husband is like Carla's--no go at our house.
