Kitchen chalkboard ideas – creative decoration or a practical idea?
During the last few years the retro style comes back and in terms of design it offers original and eye catching ideas. We will show you some interesting kitchen chalkboard ideas which look really nice and at the same time very practical. Forgetful people can write out their daily tasks and stick little notes or even write a wisdom inspiration for the day. In this way they combine decoration with practicality.
Many people are fascinated by the kitchen chalkboard ideas and use them in their kitchens instead of a cork board or a marker board. We all start the day with a coffee in the kitchen or prepare breakfast for the family and the chalkboard comes really useful to remind us what is yet to be done during the day. Once the tasks are completed, the chalkboard is wiped and ready for use. You can paint a whole wall with chalkboard paint and set a spectacular accent wall or use only a part of the wall.
In addition, chalkboard walls are especially useful for families with small children as the kids can draw whatever and whenever they like. If you feel like you cannot spare a wall, there are many other possibilities for custom designs – the kitchen island, the front doors of the cabinets or the doors of the refrigerator. Just be creative!
Kitchen chalkboard ideas can be seen in different styles of interior which makes them versatile and a chalkboard wall in the kitchen will work with industrial, rustic, shabby chic, Scandinavian and even contemporary designs. To paint a chalkboard wall you need to choose one with smooth surface and get the paint form a store. Chalkboard paint is offered from many manufactures and dealers but make sure it does not contain toxic elements. Once you paint your wall, let it dry and it is ready to be used – write down recipes, phone numbers, shopping lists, the weekly menu or just loving messages for your family.
