I am making this chalkboard for Mason. When he is older, he can doodle on it. I had this window that would be perfect (thanks Kristen) I sanded it down good since Mason will be playing with it one day.
Then I got some paint and grout as the link explains. This paint I don't have a name for, I made it by mixing some greens and white that I had.
1 CUP OF PAINT
2 TABLESPOONS OF GROUT (they said non-sanded; I think I used sanded. woops)
and mix it very well. The grout takes long to mix.
I taped around the edge of the window. not sure if you can see the tape?
painted it on with a roller. I used a little paint brush for the edge.
My little helper is happy with his chalkboard.
What should I do next?

But I am going to wait on that one because I have done a lot of art stuff I feel like and its intimidating.
