Making things to decorate my husband’s desk is not really easy. All my projects are too girly and don’t really much his style. So, when I got the chalkboard paint and noticed that he was really into al my chalk projects, I decided to give it a try and finally do something for him! I picked a wooden picture frame at Michael’s, of course I had to buy the one I liked the most… even though a square one would have been more his style. To paint it, I used Martha Stewart’s chalkboard paint, which is my favorite one! I recently got a few other shades which I can’t wait to try :) After two hands of paint, I stained it with chalk to give it a more used look. I decided to keep it simple, but you can also write a message on it or make some cute drawings… there are endless possibilities!

Let me know if you try this DIY chalkboard picture frame project… or come up with a similar idea :)

    I love chalk paint and you are right it is more neutral to everyone’s taste! Love this idea of using the chalk paint on a frame! Looks fantastic!

    Cute DIY! I will definitely have to do this. I like the idea of making the inside portion a chalk board and decorating the frame to have a message board.
