Happy Wednesday!
The week is half-over and it is time to celebrate by sharing the quickest DIY project of all time!
It is quick…It is fast…
It is as speedy as they come!
It is DIY in 5 MINUTES!!!
Here is how I spiced up our medicine cabinet with this easy, DIY toothbrush holder.
What you’ll need:
- Toothbrush Holder – I found this on clearance for under $2
- Chalkboard Spray Paint (AKA: God’s gift to crafters)
- Painter’s Tape
- Newspaper
- Optional: Real Beanz Ice Coffee (This is my new favorite!)
Directions:
Grab your toothbrush holder and your coffee folks!
Every fabulous project of mine involves coffee at some point in time.
It all started in college… I said I wouldn’t get addicted… Ha, I’m not going there, just kidding! Stretch the tape around the front of the jar so that the lines are straight and parallel. Add two more lines of tape where you want the chalkboard paint to end. Press all edges down well to prevent any paint from getting underneath. Tape the newspaper around the remainder of the holder to prevent over-spray. Add tape to the edge of the newspaper and then apply to cover the rest of the holder. Now you are ready… wait, more coffee… how did that sneak into the picture! And now you are ready to paint. Once painted, allow to dry thoroughly according to paint directions. Carefully remove the tape to reveal crisp, clean lines. Almost ready… Prepare the surface by using the side of your chalk and filling the area. Rub in the chalk to create an authentic looking chalk board finish. There you have it! You can write whatever your heart desires. I thought “brush” seemed appropriate!
Have fun DIY’ers!

Love it! I I love this product, and also use the chalkboard labels by Martha Stewart in my stamp studio to label things. I wish I would have known about this spray before I bought my chalkboard for my studio. I love chalkboards and keep lots of lists on mine.

I love chalkboards too! I really need to buy some of the labels for my kitchen pantry. They would work perfect for my spices!

Adorable! I love a quick project, especially one that turns out so cute! Reminds me of those chalkboard-labeled jars they’re selling at Anthro right now. Love!
Rustic Honey says
Thanks Kelly! I love all the labels too!
