I have to admit though, that if you look behind the frame you’d probably laugh at me. I can’t wait to try out some fun ribbons for various the holidays. The ribbon they used for it wasn’t long enough to hang on the chalkboard so I used some ribbon I had on hand. I grabbed an O which of course was the perfectly shaped wreath. JoAnn had some wreaths on clearance that were in the shape of various letters. To dress up my chalkboard, I added a boxwood wreath. Prime your cork board chalkboard by using the side of a piece of chalk to color over the entire chalkboard.Allow the chalk paint to dry for three days before using chalk on it.
(Allow drying time in-between the coats). Paint the cork board with chalkboard paint at least two coats.Stain your frame two coats (allow drying time in-between the coats).If you want to stain your frame, start with lightly sanding the wood frame.Stain (if you want to change the color of the frame).Chalk paint (you can get a smaller container, you don’t need a lot).

How to Turn a Cork Board into a Chalkboard
It’s the cork board that was on my wall throughout childhood. Believe it or not, the cork board I used for this project is from my childhood. I know I had the perfect piece of cork board for the space. I remembered a while back seeing on Pinterest that you could paint cork board with chalk paint. But, I had no luck finding a piece in the size I was looking for. I wanted to recreate it in a way that would allow me to change out the wreath for various seasons.įor this project, I decided to head to the thrift store to find a piece of art I could paint on top of. On Pinterest forever ago, I fell in love with this Christmas wreath wall hanging from Live on Virginia Street. It makes it a great option for creating framed chalkboards on the cheap. Did you know you could paint cork board with chalk paint? Cork board is cheap and easy to find anywhere.
