Chalk Board Art- Our Top 10 Favorite Tutorials

I love all of the chalk board art that I have been seeing lately. I loved it so much that I decided to make my own chalk boards so that I could make myself an expert in chalk board art (what?! I can dream! ;)) I have seen mini and large with chalk board art and I love them all. 

The hubs and I love barn wood. He acquired some from hims mama so we have been making all sorts of projects out of it. The latest is a door sized chalk board that is outlined in my favorite Paradise Blue paint that I distressed. What is really cool is this project cost us next to nothing to make and turned out super awesome. I would pay top dollar for something like this at a boutique or store. I am going to write a huge Valentines message on it for the skiddles, this Friday. I will post it! You can do so much with chalk art. Here are some of my favorites!!
