My partner and I were planning on doing a half a chalk wall in our kitchen for notes and whatnot but I love the chalkboard fridge idea more than the wall. This is a super cool idea. Are chalk spray cans easy to work with? Is it messy when working with it?

This is super cool. This chalkboard paint comes in a spray can so it's makes this upcycled incredibly fast. Chalkboard crafts are cool and functional, I see so many creative things people draw on their fridges online. If you want your kids to enjoy some non-electronic play time this is all you need to get their creative juices flowing.

I love this idea, What a great way to give a old fridge a makeover. This is a clear complete step by step way to make your fridge a large chalkboard. I so need to do this on the fridge in our game room. A great way to keep score and after the game, just wash it off. So have to find the spray paint. Thank you so much for sharing this free makeover idea.
