Isn’t she lovely?
This is her before:
The frame said buy me. I love all the details.
I spray painted it with a flat white and dry brushed with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Country Grey.
I removed the picture and painted it with 3 coats of chalkboard paint.
It turned out great, she really put a smile on my face 
I couldn’t resist this photo of my dogwood tree. It is so beautiful!
I hope you are having a great week!
The next time you see one of those old pictures, grab it.
Make a chalkboard out of it!

Very pretty, Debbie!
Your dogwood is gorgeous! We had a dogwood when we lived in Indiana, but it was tiny in comparison to yours!
Love it!
I love it Debbie!!

I did the same with one in my diningroom only it’s oval and I found out that the pictures takes the chalkboard paint really well, tried it on a mirror and wasn’t as good as the picture board! I really like how yours turned out!
Love it! That frame was just begging to get a facelift!

My mouth is wide open. I didn’t know you could use chalk paint over a painting. Wow! I have had a quart of chalk paint for almost a year and haven’t even cracked it open yet. I have seen all of these inspirations in blogland, and it is time to get my rear in gear. The first thing to get painted will be the cabinet doors in my new craft room.

Do you need some sort of primer? I have a large canvas-like picture (frameless) that I want to turn into a chalkboard, and not sure if I need to prime it first. It has sort-of a slick surface….thanks for any advice!!
Hi Kelly,
I didn’t use a primer. I just painted it with the chalkboard paint.
Thanks,
Debbie
