chalkboard crafts

so i was reading one of my favorite blogs- www.twoshadesofpink.blogspot.com -when i came across this great chalkboard paint idea.  it got me thinking that i could do lots with chalkboard paint.  so, i went to home depot and bought a can of it for $12.00 and away i went.  i am thinking it will last me quite awhile. 
project #1:  the clay pot:









this project is so easy.  i painted the first coat of the terra cotta pot.  it took about 30 minutes to dry (but read directions, in case i am wrong).
                                                        



don't forget to paint just a bit of the inside, the part that might show if your plant or soil doesn't cover all the way to the top. once dry apply a second coat and allow ample time to dry.  so cute to plant any fruit, vegetable, herb, or flower.
