Chalkboard Paint Turns Boring Furniture Into Childhood Fun

One can of chalkboard paint + a boring wood table = a fun childhood-inspired centerpiece for your dining room. The possibilities are endless when your table is a canvas. From awesomely colored table settings to impromptu chalk art, a dinner party will have to be fun when the table is a part of the conversation.

The idea will be an obvious hit with kids, but chalkboard paint is a great source of entertainment for all ages. Designer Kate Leary takes a typical and traditional (boring) dining room table and turns it into an entertaining conversation piece all in itself.
