Chalkboard

BEFORE
This mirror is a leftover from a dresser I no longer have. It was on my mantel in Texas till this came along.

That was a SURPRISE Christmas gift for the HMIC from me. Guess who was more surprised?? I was when I saw some guys carrying a big box into our house. Now this is always up and center for the world to see.

Back to the mirror. Since then I've had this mirror in the closet. I've always wanted a chalkboard wall. But like I've said before I don't really feel like painting the wall just to have to primer back. Maybe if I knew I would be here longer. Then along came the mirror calling out to me. Didn't know if it was going to work. Then I thought "what's the worse thing that can happen it not work". Of to work I got priming it, putting a few coats of chalkboard paint, and painting the mirror. And there you have it a chalkboard!! Now where to put it.
