I am still having fun hanging out with my in-laws visiting us from South Africa.
With the heat in Phoenix this time of year, everyone is constantly drinking something...water, soda, juice, etc.
And everyone is constantly looking for their glass, and accusing me (can you believe it!) of putting it in the dishwasher when they specifically asked me not to, since they were going to use it again...
Last night I remembered something I saw at CostPlus World Market a few months back, and have always wanted to do myself, but never got around to it.
Oupa and Ouma from South Africa
Started out with these glasses. I just used a sponge brush and painted a strip of primer the width of the brush across the glass.
Let it dry, and painted on the chalkboard paint.
Now we can write our names on our glasses with chalk while we use it! Cool huh?
What do you think? Keep those comments coming!

ReplyDeleteHow funny! My post today is about a great thrift find, and I have a project I'm going to post in the next few days about a very similar project! I taped mine off ;)

Great project, and it really personalizes the glasses. Does the chalk board paint come in different colors?
ReplyDeleteHa! This is a great idea! My son could never steal my cup again. :) Very cool!
