DIY chalkboard gifts – Mother’s Day…

Some really easy DIY chalkboard gifts for Mother’s Day can be so much fun to do. Here are some of the ideas I had and best of all they are really inexpensive.

First item is a chopping board ,  this can be purchased at any housewares shop. My one came from Kmart for about $6.

Supplies needed

chopping board
chalkboard paint
paintbrush
turpentine to clean brush
tape and scissors
rags/newspaper or cover to protect table

Instructions

First tape off the area you want to paint, (this paint is really easy to wipe off if necessary when wet).

Next, paint! I had to do two coats, letting it dry after the first coat. Remove the tape and leave for 24 hours before writing with chalk on it.

I love how this turned out! And the board can be used over and over.

In my next post I will show you another DIY chalkboard painted gift for Mother’s Day.

Also, some recipes to come, super easy:  Feijoa cake and Rosemary bread.

Thanks for reading my post!
