*Chalkboard Glass Containers*

I'm finally getting around to posting what I made last weekend. Last weekend I went to craft night @ maggie's house in WV and toted with me my thrifty $1 glass containers from Goodwill.  YES!..I got both containers for only $1 each!!  I was sooo excited when I found these because I have been reading this Eco-Crafts book and inside shows how to turn old glass jars into new and improved containers all by using chalk board paint .** I'm now totally obsessed with this chalk board paint! everyone should get some and try it out!!  I'm going to be putting our coffee and sugar in them...I'm sick of using the plastic and yucky containers...I needed something pretty and crafty!!! ;)  I'll show you how I did it.....

Supplies:

• Old glass jars or containers
• chalkboard paint
• brush
• maskin tape

Use the maskin tape to define the area of the jar that will be your chalkboard "label" ** make sure it is pressed securely so no paint smears thru.

Apply your chalkboard paint to the area with your brush

Let dry and apply 2 more coats *5min between each coat

Remove the tape after the last coat. This will ensure clean lines.

It's as simple as that!

This is what mine looked like!!

pretty isn't it?  ;)

See everybody its sooo simple!!   Their will be more chalkboard crafts in the future!

I hope you ENJOY!!!
