Rustoleum Tintable Chalkboard Paint

We’re all about multi-purposing whenever possible so we like that a can of Rust-Oleum Chalkboard Tint Base allowed us to turn the inside of the door to the garage into a family message centre and the wall of the playroom into a giant easel for artistic creations. The latex formula is easy to apply and easy to clean up and it’s durable enough to hold up to chalk over and over again. But no need to go with old-school (and we mean that literally) black or green chalkboard additions to your house—it starts off white but it’s tintable to 12 different and very fashionable colours including Raspberry, Grape Fizz, Latte and our current fave Peapod. Available at Home Depot, more details at www.rustoleum.ca, $19.95)
