Chalkboard project
Tara wanted a chalkboard wall in the kitchen for the kids. Since we have textured walls I had to sand it down, prime it, and then put 3 coats of chalkboard paint on it. Looks pretty cool!

Our new mud room
I wanted a mud room to collect all our shoes, hats, coats, etc, but I was having a hard time finding one with four cubbies and could not afford Pottery Barn. So I did some research online and with a little shopping I came up with this. The black bench is from Ikea and cost $99.00. The bench was long enough for me to put 4 baskets or bins for shoes. I was lucky enough to come across these weathered wood bins at Marshalls on clearance...$16 each. I love the chalkboard on the front where Our names are displayed. Joanne Fabrics has wooden bins that you could paint, make weathered looking and just add chalkboards. I found the black shelf also at Marshalls for $30 as well as the weathered window turned mirror for $40. Then I found a white coat rack from Ikea for $9.99. I gave it a weathered look to match my mirror and bins with some grey paint. I added a few pictures on the top shelf and some pillows on the bench. My look was almost complete. I decided to add the black letters to spell out 'welcome'. I think it balances out the look and it will help my little kids with letter recognition....win win!!! Letters were on sale for $1.99 each at Joanne Fabrics.
