I love using language as art as much as the next person, but using such a highly disposable method of displaying it seems disjointed with the idea. I think I'd prefer working in graphics to create a banner print out. The way that the light and dark of the chalkboard play and molding gives a very nice look.

This is also great for a child's room, also for the inside of a pantry door, for writing grocery lists or something. Its a great way to decorate and its practical too!

I don't, however, think it has a place in this room. I feel it's too whimsical and "remedial." This is a classic, more traditional/elegant dining room, and the paint and writing seems to dumb it down. It doesn't draw the eye upward properly - a richly colored piece(s) of art would do a better job.

We have refinished our kitchen cabinets with chalkboard paint. They're a big hit at parties, everyone gets together and draws on them. Love this!

It would also be neat to do some simple line drawings, maybe even caricatures of the guests of the evening. I've got to find some chalkboard markers! What a great idea!

I can't seem to find any specs... weird, as it's used so often in kid's spaces. Does anyone know if chalkboard paint comes in low or no VOC formulations..?
