Even though chalkboards have been exhausted, I'm not over them yet. I'm joining Sixty-Fifth Avenue's Chalkboard linky party today. She asked what messages we post on our boards. I tend to write on mine for the season. This week, of course I'm all about Valentines and love. Here are some other seasons.
I like some cloudiness on my board. But it's getting to be a little too much. What do you clean your chalkboards with?

I love the frame your chalk board is in. I also have to comment on your dining room. That chandelier is gorgeous!!! I also love your drapes...so elegant!

I use a wet rag to clean my chalkboard door. I wish it did a better job...the kids use colored chalk on it to so it is hard to get all of it off. I will be anxious to see what people suggest!
yours looks great by the way!!
Your chalk board is nice and big! I love the frame. I am probably the only person in all of Blogland that hasn't made one! You did a nice job!

I think the frame on your chalkboard makes it special. And then of course your clever comments is the cherry on the top.
PS No Jane, I haven't made one yet either!! I do have a stick on wallees type chalkboard that goes on the wall that I use. A no commitment type chalkboard!
I love your big beautiful chalkboard! Thanks for coming by and visiting me I am now following you.
Hi Tammy!
I loved this big gorgeous framed chalkboard when I first saw you post it! I have no idea how to completely clean a chalk board. If you find out, let me know!
I love your chalkboard in that frame. In fact, I hope to do the very same thing in my new house. One can never tire of a good thing!
Tammy this looks beautiful. I love the unique idea and pretty frame. :)
Oh...I've been wanting a great big chalkboard like that. I only have a smallish one. I'm on the look out for the right frame. Love your's.
I haven't made one yet either....I always seem to be a bit behind! Love yours....the frame is so pretty!!

I love your chalkboard...the frame is so pretty & I like the size of it.
I clean mine with a wet cloth.

Your whole room is gorgeous. The chalkboard is the crowning touch. :)

Hello sweet B,
Your chalkboard is beautiful! I need a large pretty one, I have a small one that I don't write on much.
I wash mine down when I change the message on it.
Hugs, Cindy

Yours is beautiful!!! It really fits that space and looks wonderful! Then the cute things you write are also timely and fun!!
I love this...I need to find a place to put one! I remember using a damp cloth back when I was in school and got to help clean! lol Back in the olden days! ♥
Hi Tammy,
Our chalk boards frames are similar! I love it!
I love that you have yours hanging in the dinning room! You have me thinking if my dinning room needs a pretty chalk board!
We mostly use ours to leave each other messages!

Such a gorgeous room... and love the chalkboards!!!

Hi Tammy, omg, i love chalkboards too. Maybe too much , lol. Not sure if u noticed , but the my whole dining room is done in chalkboard paint. All the black above the beadboard is chalkboard. I like to do more than just write on mine. A stencil is a great way to "draw" on it.........thanks for stopping by my blog:-)
Hi Tammy! Love the chalkboard and the fun messages too. Thanks for finding your way over to my blog. Glad to meet you.
Tammy that is just beautiful! I have a large vintage frame that I want to make a chalkboard with as soon as the weather gets warmer. Don't have a great place to paint inside! I did a chalkboard table for the grandkids and it was getting a little to chalky for me too! So I just re-sprayed it with three more coats of Chalkboard paint and its holding up better with just using a wet cloth. Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving sweet comments. Hope you have a blessed day, Vicky
Tammy, your personality shines through every time, my friend! What love you show through your chalky messages each season...
I like the little bit chalky look myself but from what I remember of chalk boards, just a little water and damp rag work fine for clean up.
Bises,
Genie
I saw this blog post the other day. She uses baby oil to clean her chalkboard - http://countrykingdom.blogspot.com/2011/01/sleek-chalkboard-tip.html
I love this idea...how fun for the whole family. Surprise messages would be fun too ;D
You make the simple chalkboard so elegant with your gorgeous frame!!! All I use is a damp paper towel, give it a good wipe, and I'm good to go!
Now that's a chalkboard!
It's serving two purposes: adding beauty and something eye-catching to your dining area, and allowing messages to be seen by everyone.
I love the messages very much and your dining room is gorgeous.

I love your chalkboard frame. You have very neat handwriting/printing!! I use a wet sponge to wipe mine down when I change the message. Usually I post a scripture, and the weekly menu. Our chalkboard is divided. The bottom half is for the kids to doodle on :)
your chalkboard looks fabulous!! I so love the frame.
Kathy
I love the frame around your chalkboard. It makes it look so elegant. Also, that chandelier in your dining room is just gorgeous. Thanks so much for stopping by today and for your kind comment.
Your chalkboard is AWESOME! You just have gorgeous taste and a wonderful home...so warm and inviting. I would not tire of that chalk board at all.
You have a gorgeous chalkboard there! Thanks for following me- your blog is also beautifully styled-( Did you also know about dustless chalk? I think it's still available through teacher supply sites)
I like your chalkboards and you get good use from them!
That chalkboard is so pretty! Love all the different sayings on it! I am answering your question about my tile. So far, it is rather easy to clean up and is holding up very well. I'm tempted to put it in the kitchen, but oh, what a chore!!! I am in love with it so far!!
