feeling crafty

The other day I was feeling a little crafty. As I rummaged through my craft closet I found this....



It was basically a brand new can b/c I only used it on 2 picture frames a few months back for Christmas gifts.It then got me thinking of all the posts and magazine articles I have seen about using chalkboard paint on walls, or picture frames, etc. pretty much anything you want to. So I made the impulsive decision (like all my decisions) to do this....
I painted the inside of our pantry door.  It used to hold some racks that basically just got in the way of everything and I turned it into our "art" door : )  The boys are a little young to really make art on it so I decided to use it to hang up some artwork they have done. I glued on clothspins to hold the art. Now I won't have to clutter the fridge with artwork. Anddddd. I can even write down memos, etc. with chalk.
: )




Speaking of chalk did anyone know that chalk can be used for this....

A bundle of chalk hung in a closet will absorb extra moisture and keep your clothes smelling extra fresh!
Ok, I am done bragging on chalk.
