wall idea #2: chalkboard mirror

*so first thing's first, you must find a fab mirror. these would each be excellent candidates:




i started my mirror hunt on craigslist and struck gold with a piece similar to this, but rectangular, for a mere 10 bones.

*next you must purchase chalkboard paint. i'm superexcited to share a new discovery: THIS dreaminess in a can. thank you Hudson Paint! i'll admit i've been a bit lazy with this project- my CL-scored mirror is still sitting in my office and i have yet to pick a paint color. my goal is to make this happen before november!

this is a helpful little step-by-step lesson to follow if you'd like to spiff up your own bare walls.
