I asked my power-tool-loving husband to cut an 18" x 24" board out of some scrap plywood in the garage. (He was more than happy to oblige.)
After giving it three coats of chalkboard paint (eek, three coats) and letting it cure for 24 hours, it was ready to be put to use.
I chalked an excerpt from Edgar Allan Poe's poem "The Raven" onto the chalkboard and placed it on my fireplace mantle. Don't you think the black raven on the top is a nice, spooky touch?
