Tutorial: DIY Chalkboard Picture Frame

Tutorial: DIY Chalkboard Picture Frame

Make a funky-cool message board using chalkboard paint and a picture frame! 

A simple tutorial you can do in just a few easy steps!

Items Needed:

• Picture frame (the one I used, I found at Target)
• Chalkboard paint (I picked up mine at Home Depot, but many other stores carry this)
• Paint brush

Step One:
Take apart your photo frame and use either the backing or the glass as your "chalkboard surface".
(I chose to use the backing as I liked the feel of the surface more than I liked the glass, but choose whichever you like more).

 
Step Two:
Using whichever backing you've chosen, paint that surface with the chalkboard paint.

Step Three:
Wait for the paint to dry and apply a 2nd coat. Follow the directions on your chalkboard paint for appropriate wait time.

Once dry, put your picture frame back together and you're done!
