Chalkboard Labels

Sarah at Thrifty Decor Chick just redid her pantry. It looks great and she had a TON of great ideas (like having plywood cut to lay over wire shelving!! I may have to use that idea in my sons closet!!)

But my FAVORITE trick that she used in the pantry is this:

You see that cute label. She made one for each of the shelves. She painted a ruler with chalkboard paint (I have about a thousand rulers in my garage and we won't talk about why!!) and then used ribbon to hang it!

I think this would be SUCH a cute way to label where toys go in a playroom! And super cheap!! Or thrifty. Since it is the Thrifty Decor Chick we are talking about!

And remember, you can make your own chalkboard paint!!

I absolutely "heart" the pantry ideas. Makes my heart all-a-flutter!

I love your blog and your fun ideas! And who knew you could make your own chalkboard paint? Brilliant!

Love that. My pantry needs some organizing.

Amy said...

That is so cute! I second denise, my pantry desperately needs organizing. Well, reorganizing.

Oh that is brilliant!!!! And, I would think that if you didn't have an abundance of rulers you could go to a paint store and get free paint sticks!! :)

this is great! I got some chalkboard plaques from pb kids as a gift last year and never had anything to put them on. I'm definatly going to put them up in my pantry now.
