We are taking a very relaxed approach to hosting Easter this year. Just really looking forward to the big egg hunt, celebrating at church with our family, and gathering for some yummy food and giggle time. I decided to only take on one small project for my Easter table. I have been wanting to try this forever. I thought it would be fun to have some chalkboard chargers. 
It is still a work in progress. I used the gold chargers I already had. Might seem like a strange decision but I only spent the $5.00 necessary for the spray paint and now have a whole new look. Some of the gold on my chargers was beginning to chip anyhow so it was time to switch it up! 
Oh, and here is my view while spray painting. 
It was all quite enjoyable until a DIY nightmare happened. . . . darn can of spray paint exploded. Has this happened to you? So weird. Brand new can, too. Oh, well. Nothing like black under the fingernails for datenight. Sorry, honey. 
A while back Jen from Tatertots and Jello made darling chalkboard chargers. Check them out here. I am also planning to use Easter grass on the table {a fun name for the otherwise known wheatgrass}. Thank you to my sweet friend and neighbor, Meghan, for the idea. And in case you are using some of this, a sweet man in that works in the produce department of the grocery store told me to never pour water on top of the grass, but to soak it in a dish of water and a paper towel. Seems to be working really well. 
Oh, and in case you think things look picture perfect over here . . . think again. While I snap photos of this on one end of the table, the other end looks like this. 
This is my real life. Book orders yet to be filled out {due today after having two weeks to fill them out} and baby dolls everywhere. This one is looking a bit frightening, I might add. This scene look familiar to anyone? Wouldn’t trade if for the world. Wishing you all a wonderful and relaxed Easter. May you enjoy the time with family and friends.

Your chargers are so cute – what a great idea! Happy Easter!
Your view out your garage is GORGEOUS!!! Sigh…love that it's spring in OC! 🙂 Love the chalkboard chargers…such a great idea! Happy Easter sweet friend! 🙂
Real life pics trump perfect pics any time. 😉
And…yet another fantastically simple project of awesomeness. Thanks for sharing. I have chargers to do this with. Yippee!
Happy Easter! We celebrate for a wonderful reason!
There are endless things to do with chalkboard paint! What a fun idea. And guess what? Goo-gone gets spray paint off nails and skin SUPER easily…give it a try 🙂 Poor babydoll…looks like her leg is broken hehe. Happy Easter, Court. Have a lovely weekend with family xo
I love that you always have a fun new project! The chargers are super cute – I'll have to keep my eye out for my cheap ones to make my own! Hope y'all have a wonderful Easter!
What a gorgeous view! Your chalkboard chargers are so cute – I may need to copy you. My gold chargers have seen better days too! Have a great weekend with your family!
I have so been there with the spray paint can…UGH! Love the chargers however. And, too funny about the baby dolls everywhere…used to be us!!!
That dang paint can! But your wheat grass and tulips are gorgeous, but your view is amazing! I love the pink petals!
Add some Star Wars action figures attacking the baby's head, and you'd have my reality. I can relate. 🙂 Lu-huve the chargers. Such a great idea! And…THAT'S your view out of your garage? Goodness! Beautiful! Happy Easter, my friend!
Love the chalkboard chargers! Using colored chalk would really make them pop & drive home the Easter/spring theme.
Those are fun chargers! You are so clever, Courtney! I also love your beautiful paisley runner! I am still working on getting our table together. Trying to keep it simple but have changed it 3 times! I hope you and your family have a Happy Easter. XO
Courtney, I have those exact same gold chargers and exact can of spraypaint in my basement….I suddenly see some chalkboard chargers as a last minute addition to my Easter tables! Great idea for chipping chargers. I see those chargers at Goodwill all the time for anyone else that wants to do this. (I can't believe your can exploded though – ughh!!)
Hope you enjoy the Easter weekend with your beautiful family!
Loving this idea using the chalk paint in many ways, and hmmm, I think I have some of those Old Time Pottery bought for a dollar gold chargers I got a gazillion years ago in the attic, thanks for the idea! Good to see a part of your real life, to me, that's what makes it personal and diffidently something I can relate too considering we have five month old Labrador puppies, think mini tornadoes in spurts throughout the day, haha…
