Chalkboard Door, baby!

Sometimes doors open and sometimes they close…

That’s life, right?

And sometimes, {well… quite often over here…}

They get dirty.

OH SO DIRTY!

And hells bells, here in VA that red clay just gets everywhere.  It’s like a crazy-eyed stalker that won’t leave me be!

So, the white door?  It HAD to go.

I mean, G-O.

back-door-before

 

And I thought bringing in a little fun might help detract from this mess:

messy-garage

‘Cuz I just keep day-dreaming that it grows a brain and straightens itself out, yo.

Well, I had a ton of leftover Chalkboard paint from my Chalkboard Desk…so much better than leftover meatloaf, right?

Anyway… I painted it.

I was super excited about having a Chalkboard Door…Like all tingly and light-headed!

And then I primed with Chalk because that’s what I’ve heard you are supposed to do so that’s what I did. 🙂  I’m a rule follower.

I’m sure it won’t stay like this for long…

Chalkboard-door

My funky little monkeys haven’t found the chalk yet…

chalkboard-hello

But when they do… you can bet there will be some interesting things drawn on there.

I wonder if I’ll be wishing I just had red clay to deal with!

Do you have a deadly combination of a teenager and a big chalkboard door anywhere?  Yikes!
