Supplies:

  • Black Chalkboard Paint
  • Foam Paintbrush
  • Chalk or Chalk Marker

1.) Begin by dipping your foam paintbrush into your chalkboard paint and carefully coat your wooden plaque; leaving a bit of space between the wood grain and the bark.

We followed the grain of the wood for a more even coating.
