When I spied Chipping With Charm's little chalkboard pumpkin created with a cutting board, I knew I had to make some too.
I decided to make mine orange so I added a couple Tbsp. of unsanded grout to a bottle of acrylic craft paint to make chalkboard paint. I picked up the cutting boards at the thrift store for a dollar or two.
A couple coats of paint and a green painted stem and I have some fun pumpkin chalkboards--perfect for kids or adults.
I love the shape of this guy!
A piece of burlap tied in a knot makes a great eraser.
Easy, and a fun, little fall gift for someone special.
So cute! I like the curvy one too...fun shape!
ReplyDeleteToo cute!! LOVE the colored chalkboard paint :)
ReplyDeletePerfectly autumn!! I'd love it if you linked these cuties up to my party that kicked off today: http://www.prodigalpieces.com/2013/09/its-party-time-whats-your-prodigal.html

Your pumpkins are adorable! Great idea!
ReplyDeleteHmmmm, now I want some of each - black and orange. Maybe I should do a ghost white one?
ReplyDeleteI love these! What a great idea. What kind of wood did you use? How about posting the patterns so us drawing challenged crafters can make some :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE these -- what a great project, yours and chipping with charm!
