How to Create a Magnetic Chalkboard Wall

So several years ago when I became aware that you could buy chalkboard paint for your home, I knew that my kids would some day have their very own chalkboard to doodle on! And then I learned about magnetic primer, and well...that sealed the deal! I realize that chalkboard walls are becoming quite common, but I always enjoy seeing how people ... View the Post

Our style is pretty modern {or more specifically, modern metro with a touch of urban funk}. I say "our" because I am fortunate that Scott and I have very similar taste! But having a modern aesthetic can be challenging at times. It is sometimes frustrating to walk through store after store seeing more traditional furniture options that just don't feel like us, and as a result, we often end up doing a lot of our shopping online. It also seems that furniture with modern lines is often ... View the Post
