Chalkboard Accents in 15 Dining Room Spaces

We have mentioned in our previous posts on how vast the choices are when we talk of decorating your homes. And as usual, decoration is never limited to the bedroom or living room because other spaces in the house can actually look great too. The dining room can be decorated in more than just one way. We have recently posted about dining rooms with wall plates decor. Isn’t it lovely that these things we use for eating can actually be a perfect wall decor too? Well, that’s not all because today, we will show you another creative decoration for the dining room.

Chalkboards- when you hear this term, what will immediately come to your mind at once is school. Yes, these are used by educators to present their lessons to their students but aside from that, chalkboards can also be good for decoration as well as for keeping notes even in the dining room. Wonder how it will look like? Simply scroll down and you will see a list of dining rooms with chalkboard accents.

It would really be nice to have a chalkboard wall and see writings on it like the one in this traditional dining area.

So, whoever gave you the idea that chalkboards are merely for school is totally wrong! Look at how beautiful these spaces with chalkboards! Well, most of them were actually painted with chalkboard pain. It is indeed fun that we can write on it or make drawings on it when we want to. This would be great especially if you have a kid in the house. So, instead of having a brick wall or other wall accents for the kitchen, why not try painting a portion of it with chalkboard paint? Or you can merely have a board and hang it on the wall. Super creative right?
