DIY // Chalkboard Clipboard

Drinking: Water
Listening:  Good Charlotte

I've been wanting to make this project for a long time. I've had all the goodies in my office just waiting for the perfect time! I got the itch a couple weeks ago when I had some spare time and out came this finished project. Check it out...

You'll need: 
-Clipboard
-Foam brushes and small brushes
-Chalkboard paint


1. Gather your supplies and find a place that you can paint on. I use this cardboard box for all of my projects... you've probably seen it before. Hahaha. 



2. I started by tying the clip "open" so I could paint under it. I pinched it, like I was going to clip something to the board, but tied the two holes together, so it remained open while I painted. 


3. Using the small brush I painted under the clip and around the metal area. I finished by using the foam brush to paint the larger area with several coats. 



I'm loving this finished product! So many options! I've been using my test board so much since I made it! I have several up for sale in my shop that you should check out! What about you guys? Do you like this project? Where could you use this in your normal routine? 

Shalom
