{Chalk it up to Love}

I discovered chalkboard paint when I was about 12 years old - it was the coolest thing I had ever seen. Once I finally settled on the perfect DIY project (a chalkboard shelf with key hooks) and bought a can of paint, it took everything I had not to roll it on every cupboard, wall and door in my mother's house.

It's been 12 years since I built that key hook and I know just which wall to hang it on in my new apartment. As for painting every other wall, let's just chalk it up to love!
