DIY: Chalkboard Rules

Monday, January 13, 2014

So I've been looking through Pinterest and found these chalkboard rules that I am absolutely obsessed over. I wanted to make my own for our house's entry way but didn't want the mess of the chalk and risk smudging everything before we move. And have you seen the price on chalkboards? expensive homie. 

First you need to download the chalkboard background (I'm sure you can just download it from Google or just about anywhere) but I'll save you the time :)
You can get it HERE.

Next open Picmonkey.com & click the 'Edit Photo' button on the top left. (This is free and easy but use whatever photo editing site you love!)

Upload your chalkboard background and have at it! It's super simple and easy and you can get as complex or as simple as you want. I used about 19 different fonts, sizes, and added some arrows and lines to spruce it up a bit. When saving the file, make sure you click the highest quality. I believe it's called Sean. Lol.

I plan on framing it when we move but just wanted to get a head start on some decor.

Here's what I have so far!

I'll update with the final product soon!
