Chalkboard Vinyl

I created this little set of chalkboards awhile ago with chalkboard vinyl.

I have been on the hunt for chalk markers to use with it and have had a difficult time finding something.

Regular chalk works just fine, but the markers have a finer tip.

I even checked the craft stores while we were in Utah a couple of weeks ago

and got nothing but strange looks from the sales associates.

You want to know where I finally found the markers?

At our local Michaels.  I was browsing the paint section and saw them.

Turns out they were not in the chalk section like I thought they would be.

As much as I love the chalkboard pens...

I probably love these hinges even more.

I found them at a hardware store in a discontinued bin.

The chalk ink wipes right off the chalkboard vinyl with a wet rag.

You can see I wasn't patient enough to let it dry before I wrote on it again.

I'll be sharing more chalkboard projects this week.
