Faux Blackboard Signs

Since we are hoping to start farmer's market this Saturday, we are feverishly trying to get everything organized!  I came across a tutorial about little blackboard signs, but I had no special blackboard paint!  So this is my rendition of this tutorial:  Chalkboard Sign


The steps were fairly easy, I used a template to cut out the shape on the cardboard and cut it out.  Then I painted them with black acrylic paint and glued some clothes pins onto the back.  When  the paint was fully dry, I used some white chalk around the edges to make it look like a real chalk board.


I added some buttons for extra cuteness and used a white pencil crayon to write on my text.  They look like real chalk boards, but they are not erasable!
