Halloween Subway Art: Chalkboard Style

I recently stumbled upon  Polly Want a Crafter? blog {the break off blog from Remodelaholic}. Yet another place for me to spend hours and hours! Cassity was featuring a project by Allison from A Glimpse Inside.  When I  saw Allison’s darling “Spooktacular” Subway Art Tutorial I knew I had to copy it somehow.  You can see all the details right here.

This is so darn cute. As most of you know, I have a chalkboard that hangs in my kitchen and I love to switch up the quote or message that is written on it. So I took the VERY VERY easy way out and simply did my own version in chalk. The original is definitely a much better statement, but the chalk version makes me smile and will do the job for the remainder of the month. Thanks for the inspiration, Allison!

So I think I like it hanging in it’s original place the best. It has a prominent spot in our kitchen. Since it is rather busy, it pops on the wall rather than getting lost amongst the Halloween décor. It just occurred to me that I could actually use colored chalk and get a very similar look to Allison’s. {I am a little scared that it took me that long to realize I could use colored chalk. Maybe a trip to the store tomorrow!} What do you think? Do you have a chalkboard you can doll up for the holidays?
