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:

IMG_1787 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! IMG_1788 Stretch the tape around the front of the jar so that the lines are straight and parallel. IMG_1790 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. IMG_1792 Tape the newspaper around the remainder of the holder to prevent over-spray.IMG_1793 Add tape to the edge of the newspaper and then apply to cover the rest of the holder. IMG_1795 Now you are ready… wait, more coffee… how did that sneak into the picture! IMG_1798 And now you are ready to paint. IMG_1800 Once painted, allow to dry thoroughly according to paint directions. IMG_1801 Carefully remove the tape to reveal crisp, clean lines. IMG_1802 Almost ready…IMG_1803 Prepare the surface by using the side of your chalk and filling the area. IMG_1804 Rub in the chalk to create an authentic looking chalk board finish. IMG_1806 There you have it!IMG_1807 You can write whatever your heart desires. I thought “brush” seemed appropriate! IMG_1813

Have fun DIY’ers!

  1. 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.

  2. 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!
