Chalk Board Paint



We started trying to memorize a different Bible verse every week, and this led us to make this wall in our kitchen a chalkboard wall. You paint it on the wall just like regular paint, let it dry for 24 hours and then you can start writing on it. It took some getting used to (it's a black wall in our house... a little bold), but I really like it. It's so practical for notes, reminders, shopping lists, etc. We are also really trying to stick to our budget we made a few months ago, and writing our "entertainment" expenses each month really helps us stay on track. 

We bought this from Home Depot
