Not long ago, I became the owner of a Blackboard
Oh, how happy i was!!!!!
But soon, dissatisfaction crept in & I began to covert bigger blackboards.
Well, here is my *new* blackboard : )
35" X 60"
Perfect : )
My poor husband says this board will have to stay perfect. We cannot possibly have a bigger blackboard in our dining room, which is where my wonderful board resides.
My poor, long suffering husband ; )
Along with my blackboard, the dining room is host to my beloved welsh dresser, which is home to my collection of blackboard chalk, all lovingly arranged in rainbow fashion.
I buy regular soft artist's pastels for my board & they are working very well, so far.
To be inspired by wonderful blackboard art, have a look at Flickr: Steiner in Suffolk & Creative blackboards.
Happy Chalking!

Nice! I'm hoping for a bigger blackboard soon.
WHen you say you use regular pastels what do you mean? I'm using mercurius blackboard chalk and I'd love to find a less pricy option :)
The kids and I started crafting for you guys last night :D
thank you ladies!
Jen, I really love my dresser - it was given to me when a local art shop closed down, a few years back.
Vera, I buy artist's pastels from the art supply shop.
Here are the ones I use:
