div style="text-align: justify;"Who doesn't love DIY chalkboards around the house - on walls, cabinet doors, milk bottles and just about everywhere else. I love that you can just slap on some chalkboard paint and away you go. Perfect for writing love (or hate) notes and also for covering with rubbish when you've had too many bottles of wine with friends. I'm in the process of moving house and think this is a great idea for my next place - but in a frame so the owner doesn't have a heart attack. One of my favourite projects is a href="http://songofstyle.blogspot.com/2011/08/super-easy-chalkboard-diy.html"this one/a, and did you know you can make a href="http://www.goinghometoroost.com/2010/diy-craft-projects/diy-make-your-own-custom-colored-chalkboard/"your own chalk paint in any colour/a? How. Good. Here's some inspiration for where to slap your chalkboard paint./divbr /div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/66755335@N05/6822002159/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="chalkboards by apairandaspare, on Flickr"img alt="chalkboards" height="480" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7165/6822002159_83abf22607_z.jpg" width="640" //a/divdiv class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/66755335@N05/6822477595/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="chalkboard21 by apairandaspare, on Flickr"img alt="chalkboard21" height="480" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7154/6822477595_f4cf73ce59_z.jpg" width="640" //a/divdiv class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/66755335@N05/6822011137/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="chalkboards6 by apairandaspare, on Flickr"img alt="chalkboards6" height="480" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7149/6822011137_beb43aef90_z.jpg" width="640" //a/divdiv class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/66755335@N05/6822011601/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="thestylecrusader by apairandaspare, on Flickr"img alt="thestylecrusader" height="362" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7007/6822011601_22fc69a0dc_z.jpg" width="640" //a/divdiv class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/66755335@N05/6822009031/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="chalkboards5 by apairandaspare, on Flickr"img alt="chalkboards5" height="480" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7172/6822009031_94c69deab1_z.jpg" width="640" //a/divdiv class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RsdF4MGH3aQ/Ty58KqKfdWI/AAAAAAAAGgQ/zo6a70Nn8Xc/s1600/chalkboard-cabs.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"img border="0" height="424" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RsdF4MGH3aQ/Ty58KqKfdWI/AAAAAAAAGgQ/zo6a70Nn8Xc/s640/chalkboard-cabs.jpg" width="640" //a/divdiv class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/66755335@N05/6822006897/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="chalkboards4 by apairandaspare, on Flickr"img alt="chalkboards4" height="480" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7156/6822006897_340fc21cd8_z.jpg" width="640" //a/divdiv class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/66755335@N05/6822005507/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="chalkboards3 by apairandaspare, on Flickr"img alt="chalkboards3" height="480" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7159/6822005507_1c2f20b716_z.jpg" width="640" //a/divdiv class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/66755335@N05/6822003965/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="chalkboards2 by apairandaspare, on Flickr"img alt="chalkboards2" height="480" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7170/6822003965_5686801791_z.jpg" width="640" //a/divdiv style="text-align: center;"div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/66755335@N05/6822705583/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="chalkboard22 by apairandaspare, on Flickr"img alt="chalkboard22" height="480" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7157/6822705583_8a31487299_z.jpg" width="640" //a/divdiv class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kl0-_gK5m0c/Ty6Dh4ea3fI/AAAAAAAAGgY/l26zWmeyr_E/s1600/e011.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"img border="0" height="426" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kl0-_gK5m0c/Ty6Dh4ea3fI/AAAAAAAAGgY/l26zWmeyr_E/s640/e011.jpg" width="640" //a/divdiv class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"/divdiv class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"/divbr /div style="text-align: justify;"Ps.
