Holiday Chalkboard Signs

November 24, 2014

Sawdust2stitches Christmas Chalkboard SignsIt is no small secret that I love chalkboard signs.  I love how versatile and customizable they are to  the changing seasons.  Holiday Season is no exception.   Here are this years  chalkboard updates! Complete with a bonus video documenting the process. Check it out!

If you feel as though this is a little outside of your comfort zone, here is an easier option. sawdust2stitches holiday chalkboardsHonestly,  you only need to write one word.

Holiday Chalkboard signs  sawdust2stitches  believe ss After  you write on  your chalkboard, you can use this trick to take your sign to the next level.

Using spray snow, and a stencil!  You can find spray snow at most stores that sell holiday decor.  I picked some spray snow up for $1.50.  I also found this stencil in the same section for only $1.00.

2178697  I just  placed the stencil on the chalkboard, and then dusted the stencil with spray snow,  which created a snowflake.

 I repeated this process several times, until I had filled a majority of the empty space! Ta-da!

I had seen a  Pottery Barn sign I loved and used it as my point of inspiration.  If you feel a little overwhelmed at the idea of free handing, you are in luck!  The Yellow Bliss Road  created a free printable!  You can see it here.

    Hello Corey
    I just found your website and I’m with Zuzana… wish I had found it earlier. You are amazing! and such an inspiration. I have always been one of those people who hate to see stuff thrown out… somebody can use it, right? Needless to say, I have an attic full of furniture just waiting to be fixed up and passed on. But your creative flair is what I lack, so you are bookmarked my dear 😀 I will be checking in daily for more inspiration. Oh, just one question… are you using chalk on the boards or some sort of liquid paint? Thank you for sharing. — Annie

    ps… what does “sbd” mean (referring to Zuzana’s comment)?

      Haha, don’t you think for one moment that I don’t have an entire garage FULL of potential projects. haha Sometimes it is trial and error, and sometimes I get lucky! Thanks for reading.
      … I am not entirely sure what sbd stands for either? 🙂

Meet Corey

Hi everyone, my name is Corey, and I have a problem. I can’t leave well enough alone… The best therapy usually involves a variety of power tools. So, in the few “spare” moments I am not entertaining my two beautiful, rambunctious, boys, I can typically be found hunched over a sewing machine and/or covered in sawdust. All in the efforts to create a perfect balance of aesthetics and practicality in our home.
