Since Macyn's birthday is coming up (can't you tell its sneaking up on me all a sudden? haha) we bought her a play kitchen from Ikea when we went to MN a few weeks ago. The only thing it doesn't have was a fridge to go along with it. So my dad was going to build her one. Turns out we found one on a rummage sale instead and bought that! It actually matches pretty dang well. The only downfall was the outside has a chalkboard on it and it was pretty dinged/scratched up. We decided to hit up Menards and buy some chalkboard paint. Its the weirdest thing ever - pretty much you paint it, and its a chalkboard! It even feels like a chalkboard too. (please forgive my bad picture of the paint - darn auto focus!) They had dry erase board paint too, but it was double the price. So if anyone ever needs a chalkboard or anything, I am willing to let you have some paint! So it turned out pretty well, except where the painters tape didn't cover so well. We had some paint bleed under it. Anyways, here are the before and after pictures. It turned out pretty well!![]() |

They also have chalk board paint in spray paint! And there's glow-in-the-dark paint. And magnetic paint! Crazy!
