How to Make Vintage Ruler Chalkboards
These cute little chalkboards are created with old rulers,
an old vinyl roller shade, and DecoArt Americana Chalkboard Paint
I created a large chalkboard a while back and it's been hanging in my kitchen for years... I love it!
I started by cutting the window shade vinyl in 1 foot pieces
and painting them with DecoArt chalkboard paint.
I attached old rulers on the front and scrap wood on the back. The shade and a length of jute for the hanger are sandwiched between the wood.
Wood glue and small tacks secured the painted shade between the layers of wood.
The DecoArt chalkboard paint goes on smoothly and covers in just 2 coats. I love this paint and can't wait to use it again!
Besides their great vintage look,
the best part of these chalkboards is that they can roll up
and easily store away when you are not using them.
Give the DecoArt Americana Chalkboard Paint
a try on your next chalkboard project!
