Guest room chalkboard


Now that I live almost 5 hours from my family, having a nice guest room is important to me.  I want my family to want to come visit and feel like they are welcome in my home whenever they like. 

A few weeks ago, prior to painting my dining room table with chalkboard paint.  I made a " Guest room chalkboard". 

I happend to have a frame with no glass.  The glass broke during our move to Iowa.  I painted the cardboard that came with the frame with chalkboard paint.  Drawing on the chalkboard painted cardboard still works great!

The reason why I came up with a " Guest room chalkboard" is because there are always things I always mean to tell guests, but may not get around to telling them. 

As a guest in someone else's home, it is always nice to know where towels are etc.  Its always a little awkward to ask " Uh Can I take a shower?"

Hope you get inspired:)
