Chalkboards & Spices

I'm brainstorming about fun things to do to add a little character to the kitchen. I like the idea of a DIY project and I've recently stumbled upon some awesome ideas for chalkboard paint.

I love this.

I adore this.

There's a small space above the butcher block and below the pot rack in the kitchen that is just begging to be snazzed up.  Did you know that they make magnetic chalkboard paint?!?!!? We've registered for these cool magnetic spice jars and I'm thinking something awesome is in the works!
