Snowy Sundays

While my dear sweet husband is engrossed in football and big puffy white snowflakes are swirling around the house like we're in our own personal snowglobe, I'm in heaven.

I love days where I can just hang around the house and do the things that I've really wanted to do. Yesterday's project was a blackboard in the kitchen.

Thanks to my ever-so-crafty mom, I've discovered blackboard paint. Yes, paint that you can use anywhere and it becomes a blackboard. What will they think of next? Magnetic paint? Too late! I saw that too while I was picking up my blackboard paint. 

So while my husband was soaking in as much football as he could, I was painting a section of a wall black. Normally I think he would have hovered or tried to help but this time he just shouted a few words of encouragement from the living room. Or maybe he was talking to the football players. Either way, I got my blackboard painted. I hung a frame up around it and I had my new creative outlet. I can't wait to draw on it and leave little messages. Unfortunately the can said I have to wait three days... I think I might wait until Tuesday. That's as long as I can give them.
