chalkboard art...

my friend had asked if I would make a sign for her 

son's wedding...

I sketched a few ideas

and went straight to the chalk...

I prepped the board by rubbing chalk all over it and then wiping it off

it was much simpler than i had thought

and very

fun and relaxing!

I think it turned out pretty good!

(my friend picked up the chalkboard at

homegoods!)
