newbie Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Pottery barn, but I dont know about wood frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amyable Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 This is what we have. It doesn't say it's wood, but it's a wood "look" and may really be wood (although it feels plastic-y to me :confused:) They have another, smaller board that says it's wooden framed, here. The frame on the wooden framed one looks just like the frame on mine, from the picture. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mommy7 Posted December 28, 2009 Author Share Posted December 28, 2009 Amyable, thank you for the links. These look great! Homebychoice, how did your husband make that? What a great looking chalkboard. My husband is very handy and I bet he could make it, too. Thank you for the responses! :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My husband is very handy and I bet he could make it, too. Thank you for the responses! :001_smile: We just bought a piece of plywood - about a 1/4 inch - I primed it and painted it with a couple (2 or 3) coats of chalkboard paint, we just screwed it up to the wall and "framed" it with molding - the squares in the corners came from Lowes on the molding aisle. I love it! I am glad I decided not to paint it on the wall since I've already moved it one :) Hey Homebychoice--just have to say we have dd's of the same name! lol (MH) Mine just goes by M. Sweet! I just love the name :) Lots of people just call mine by the H, but we like both names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milovany Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 For ready-made, removable chalk vinyl that can be put on a wall, these are pretty cool. More designs are expected after Jan. 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
