Yes they can get a little messy but what a great way to inspire fun and creativity in a household!

So many grays turn blue. after much trial and error for bdrm, bath and water closet , i'm happy with Benjamin Moore Horizon and Behr ultra in Burnished Clay. Neither look great on the card but they dry to a soft neutral gray. worth getting samples to try.

Hi, I can see that you are trying to get an ensuite with every bedroom and whilst that is a great idea I am not so sure your house is big enough to accommodate this. The kitchen is far too small and it is also hidden away rather than being the focal point of the house. In this case you should have a rethink with the architect to amend the layout.

I agree too! I personally love chalkboards as they add a fun element to the space. Also a quick tip- Use a soft cloth dipped in a mixture of warm water some vinegar to clean a really messy chalkboard!

Chalkboard is a good idea for some creativity but chalk dust is the problem. Even with the dustless chalk we have dust issues.
