Have you priced really large chalkboards? They can get expensive. I love this idea I spotted at an antiques show this year.
Just get an old frame (and old frames without pictures are pretty cheap). Spray paint a piece of board with chalkboard paint and attach. Or even better, first with magnetic paint and then chalkboard paint. That way you can use it as a magnetic memo board, too. Easy. And good-looking. (Just like my friends. Yea, I'm talking about you.)

I made a huge one like this pretty inexpensively.

That is so great! I wish I had a large enough space to be able to make one and hang it up! Maybe in the next house...

Now that is cute! What a great idea!
love this!! I may have to make some for my girls' bedrooms or the playroom...or the kitchen!! Oh! Too many good ideas! : )
Fabulous idea indeed! Very affordable and the best thing about this is you can always use both paints again, when you find something else that needs to be magnetic AND a writable surface orrrrr you can make a whole load of these for Christmas gifts! It will be here before you know it!!! Thanks again for the inspiration! I hope you and yours (especially the little Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker) have a gorgeous weekend!
Just did this this week. LOVE IT!
This is a great idea!! I've actually made a few of them recently.

Nice idea. I'm running an estate sale in North Providence this weekend and there is an old slate chalkboard in the celler that we will sell. Come by and see us. Check our website for the address and other info. http://www.RhodeIslandEstateSales.com
