A fun idea for your stairway

I got bored with the stenciling I had done on my stairs and decided I could permanently solve that problem by using chalkboard paint. This will enable me to change the message for holidays or just for a change of scene anytime. This is so great for kids because they can sit on the steps and draw pictures or write messages.  Can you tell I grew up in Kansas????

Materials:

• painters tape
• a can of chalkboard paint
• sander or sandpaper

Step 1.

Lightly sand the steps. Carefully tape off all trim.

Step 2.

I used two coats of paint and let it dry well between coats. The entire project only took a few hours.
