Wicker + Chalkboard = LOVE

I’ve been wanting a chalkboard for my kitchen, but I wasn’t sure what kind or size.

I like the large framed kind…

and I heart the small, cute ones…

And I’ve even thought about getting brave and putting some chalkboard across an entire wall!…

Like Layla and Kevin did!

I just couldn’t make up my mind.

However, when I saw this great little chalkboard at Home Goods last week, I knew it would be perfect for my kitchen.

I fell in love with it.

But it was $24.99!  And it wasn’t on sale or anything!

I never pay full price for an item.

That price was hard for me to swallow, when I KNEW I could make it for a fraction of the cost.

The wicker frame is what got me.  I wondered if I would be able to find one at a yard sale or Goodwill that I could turn into a chalkboard and would like as much as this one?

So I put it in my cart and walked around the store some more before I made my decision.

But the more I looked at it in my cart, the cuter it got.  Dangit.

So I caved.

But I am really glad I did.

It’s just what my wall needed, and it goes perfectly with the style of my kitchen.

Do you have a chalkboard in your kitchen?

Do you wish ya did?

Would you have paid $24.99 for this one?
