After a couple of hours, we removed the clamps and we were good to go!.
At the bottom you can see where I had rubbed the chalk on, and that the top you can see how it looks after it’s been smeared.Even with a giant chalkboard like this, it’s only a 5 minute job..
Closet doors: fully-seasoned and ready to go!Chris was a little confused as to why I would paint our closet doors black, but he’s just not cool like you and I, so he doesn’t get how neat it is..So what did I decide to draw on them, this first time around?.
Why, closet doors of course!I used an old yardstick that I found in a closet upstairs to draw a bunch of “planks” and try to make them look sort of like those fun barn-style doors I’ve been seeing around lately.
And when I get bored, I’ll just draw a different style of door!
Or something else entirely!.If it’s attractive enough, and going to be hidden by the curtains anyway, go with good enough!.
Big baseboards are really close to my heart and make me feel like all is right in the world, so that was a priority for this room.The ones we installed ended up being 11.5 inches tall.
If you tried to find baseboards like that and buy them by the foot, you’d probably end up spending thousands of dollars, just for one room.Our solution looks just as good, but costs very little in the end.
