Chalkboard Vinyl Countdown Board by Christine


Do you love adding vinyl projects to your house?  I do!  Christine Meyer joining you today with a very simple vinyl project that can be easily done in any home using SRM's Chalkboard Vinyl!  Pair it with one other type of vinyl and create your own Countdown Board!

My daughter is a planner and loves to know exactly how many days until .... So I thought this would be a perfect addition to our kitchen wall!  The nice thing about this project is that you don't need anything extra - just the vinyl and some chalk (or a chalk marker).

I cut out the chalkboard shape and the words using an electronic die cutting machine.  Using Transfer Tape I added the Bubblegum Vinyl portion. Then I went to town decorating with my chalk marker.  Chalk marker is just a little more neat than regular chalk and comes off with water.  When I created this my husband was out of town so we started with that countdown!  Now we're counting down to vacation as seen in the first picture. Drawing and decorating is a little out of my normal comfort zone but it is fun to just doodle and see where things go!

I went with the Bubblegum Vinyl for a couple of reasons - I knew the lighter color would really pop against the black and I knew if I overshot on erasing it wouldn't mess with the pink too much!

Did you know we have an All Things SRM Vinyl facebook page???  If you haven't checked it out - you should!  Even better - share a project with us!
