If you are thinking of a kitchen renovation that won’t require much money or effort but will still make your space cooler, bolder and more unusual, I have an idea for you – go for chalkboards! There are various ways to incorporate a chalkboard into your interior, and these chalkboards will be always super functional. Want some inspiration? Let’s begin!
Chalkboard Walls/Backsplashes
A chalkboard wall or a backsplash is a classic idea for a kitchen in any style: black fits all the color schemes and styles possible. Such a backsplash or wall won’t cost you much, and can be used for making notes, for leaving messages, for writing recipes down and for grocery lists. Yes, such a backsplash isn’t very practical: it’s not very easy to clean but you can renovate it fats and for cheap adding a new coat of paint. A chalkboard wall can be used by your kids for art while you are cooking or you can attach some railings with herbs and mark them all using chalk. A chalkboard wall with any art and stuff will be a nice accent wall in the kitchen.
