               Bridget Beari Makes Chalkboard Paint! 

Who knew making chalkboard paint was so easy. I found plenty of recipes for it on the internet and Pinterest. Here is my official formula:

                             1 Cup of any color latex paint 
                  1 TBSP of non sanded tile grout 

                  Mix together so there are no lumps. 

                              That's it! 
                
                  Pick your surface. Prep and prime as
                  necessary. Use a roller for a smoother 
                  surface. Dry between coats. I 
                  recommend at least 2 coats. After the 
                  surface is thoroughly dry. Prime it by 
                  taking a piece of chalk and using it
                  sideways rub a light coat on the whole  
                  surface then erase with a dry cloth. 

                         Be creative!
