CHALKBOARD WINDOW FOR LAUNDRY ROOM!

Things you need...

1. A window
2. Chalkboard paint Any Color!
3. Chalk

I got this one by telling my friend about the project and she went and dug it out of her dad's basement for me. Thanks Sarah!


I put it in my Laundry room JUST FOR LOOKS. I do not really go by the chart! I might want to try it sometime it might work!

 It was dark outside that is just a regular window in the middle not another chalkboard ;)

    I painted this chalkboard paint straight on the glass and its been there for a while now and it is definitley not coming off. maybe try putting primer on it first?:) I have never tried on a mirror. hope this helps.

    This turned out great. I'm been itching to use my chalkboard spraypaint on something. Maybe I'll have to dig up an old window too.

    Very sweet! :) I have several old windows I decorate with, but I haven't tried this one yet! One of my windows I've turned into a photo gallery...works beautifully!
    Happy Weekend!

    What a cute idea. Now if I just had a real window in the laundry room, too. Mine is a dark pit that I hate to be in. And with seven kids, I'm always in it.

    I'm gonna HAVE to do this for our Laundry room! Love it!! When we lived in Missouri a friend of mine would paint old windows like this one and they were OH SO pretty! I love decorated laundry rooms. Our's is sort of small so it wouldn't take much. I'm super excited! =)
