DIY Fancy Chalkboards for Weddings
- 1). Measure the edges of the chalkboard and cut strips of lace 1 inch to 2 inches thick to match the chalkboard length measurements.
- 2). Paint the frame or border of the chalkboard with glue using a paintbrush.
- 3). Carefully press the strips of lace onto the glue to apply the lace to the chalkboard and create a lace border around it.
- 4). Glue clusters of fake pearls, rhinestones or gemstones to the corners of the chalkboard or even on top of the lace to add some sparkle.
- 5). Draw in colorful, romantic drawings around the inside edges of the exposed chalkboard. This could include intricate flowers or interlocking hearts. Enlist the best artist among your friends and family members to create the chalk drawings.
- 6). Write in the center of the chalkboard using calligraphy letters. The chalkboard can relay information about the time schedule of the wedding ceremony and reception, reception menu items, fun facts about the bride and groom or simply the bride and groom's names and wedding date.
