I am still loving my half chalkboard wall and want to show you what I did to it today. This wall had always stumped me a bit as to what to put on it, which is why I chose to paint it with chalkboard paint. More options. I have been really wanting to hop on the wall paper band wagon but my hubs is not on board and I am just not confident enough to follow through anyway. But, to get a patterned look on the wall, I decided to draw a pattern on my chalkboard wall. So I took everything down and wiped off the stuff I had written. I found a pattern I liked on Pinterest. Then I crafted some makeshift "tools" to get the job done.
Thats right, I taped an old photo envelop to a level. High tech, I tell you.
Then I needed an angled "tool" so I drew a line on the photo envelop.
And cut down the line.
I taped another photo envelop to the angled on as kind of a spacing guide. Then I went to it drawing angles.
You are correct. They are not perfectly even or spaced but that is what I was going for. Imperfect pattern. Next, I decorated the wall.
I love it and it only took about 40 minutes! Winning!
Coming soon, my belated fall tour.
