As you know, back when I went through all of my unfinished projects list, one of them was turning my office wall into a chalkboard. And if you have kept up you will know that I finished this project.(all in a day)
It has turned out that this has by far been the best thing I have ever done for my kids. Ok, maybe not the best thing, but pretty darn close to it.
Rick has been using it to get Krischan to learn long division. (Yes, it is advanced, but remember he is a genius.)
Jakob has shown his blossoming artistic talent. This is a self portrait.
And here is a great one of suckers. I am going to have to make a print of this somehow...I wonder if he copywrites his stuff.
Kadence loves that she can finally draw on the walls without getting in trouble. Although she still does turn her body and tries to draw on the file cabinet, and the door, ok, also the floor...But chalk wipes up.
Those of you who know me, know I am lying through my teeth and that I didn't do this wall for my kids. Besides, it is in my office...But look at what I can do. I can embelish things and when I don't like it anymore, I can just erase it.
Don't ever forget. It is always all about me.
(OK, maybe not really, but it would be a much better, more peaceful world if it was.)

This is great! The Jakob suckers drawing WOULD make an awesome print. I can't wait until I'm done renting and I can start painting. A chalkboard wall is an essential part of my future home.
