LESSology Challenge #58: Chalkboard Fun is all about playing with a real or faux chalkboard. I altered a clipboard with some chalkboard paint and pretty stuff. :)
I started with this old Typo clipboard that I've had for years and my fave Martha Stewart chalkboard paint.
Next, I adhered this gorgeous lace with matte medium (you can use an adhesive of your choice).
Then I decorated the top of the clip with pretty stuff so that it looks lovely but still remains functional as a clipboard. Why yes...this project required TWO tassels instead of one. *winks*
Once that was done, I proceeded to write with a pastel pencil on my new clipboard cum chalkboard. It works like a piece of chalk minus the chalk dust.

WOW! This is ingenious, Yvonne! I love, LOVE the colors and how useful your work of art is. Thank you so much for showing us how you made it, too!
I am blown away by this project! It's so pretty and very useful too. My brain got a charge from this idea. You are so clever. Thanks for sharing your product names too because I am definitely going to try to make this clipboard.
This is so lovely! This is perfect & beautifully made.
A two tassel project, rock on! Love that color! Such awesomeness!
Well...this is beautiful! I never knew there was blue chalkboard paint! LOVE!!
What a great idea, and how absolutely beautiful! I LOVE the blue chalkboard, and LOVE all the pretty lace and embellishments. I think this rocks with the two tassels! thanks for the tip on the pastel pencil, too. Didn't know they would work.
It's gorgeous! And I love the idea of writing with a pastel pencil. Not only is there no dust, but it's so much easier to write neatly than with a stick of chalk.
