How to make your own chalk paint!


Chalk paint has to be one of the best things ever!!! You can apply this paint to anything with virtually no prep work required; meaning you don't have to sand the paint off of what you are wanting to paint. It's also really great for things that you are distressing. 


You only need three things to make your own chalk paint mixture, plaster, latex paint, and water! The recipe that I use is from the Lowes website. 5 tablespoons of plaster, 5 tablespoons of water, and 1/2 cup latex paint. 


I first mix the plaster and water. 

Then I add the paint and mix completely. Now you're ready to paint!
