I know the hubs is….that and my new love for white spray paint ; )
But seriously….isn't it awesome?!
I have been wanting to get some chalkboard sticker labels {like these} for a while now, but I didn't want to pay for them.
So….
I have this HUGE roll of contact paper and a bucket of chalkboard paint…so I made my own!
Here's how I did it:
I drew the shape I wanted onto a note card and cut it out.
I then traced the card onto a strip of contact paper with a pencil.
Covered the contact paper with a few coats of chalk board paint. It took at least 2 coats because the paint doesn't stick perfectly to the contact paper.
Let it dry…
Peel and stick!
There ya have it…
my very own removable chalkboard stickers for less than a penny!
Love em!
Love this! And I have everything to make it at home...my favorite kind of project!
ReplyDeleteBRILLIANT! This is something even *I* could do!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a cool idea. I'm wondering if you can wash the jar and sticker or if you need to replace the sticker each time? I am gonna get me some of that stuff.
