As you may know, I’m desperately seeking chalkboard materials to create Message Central in my kitchen.
The reason that I am desperately seeking a chalkboard product, is that I am trying not to end up painting my cabinets with chalkboard paint. Even though I’m more adventuresome than most with decor, I’m still a little skittish about a permanent change to the kitchen cabinetry.
It just so happens that the kitchen cabinets are the perfect location to create Message Central in our home.
So imagine my joy when I saw these new Modular Chalkboard Tiles from Pottery Barn.
They really are terrific, although they didn’t work for my purposes. The very thing that makes them great – that they’re very sturdy & heavy – is why they didn’t work for me. I need something lightweight to attach to my cabinet doors. But they would work well in a kid’s playroom, or if you were creating your Message Central on a blank wall, rather than on cabinets.
Ultimately, I may end up keeping them for another room, but as for Message Central, I may need to accept that to create message central, I need to paint the cabinets!
