First, go to your local thrift store and purchase a fun looking frame or mirror! I found these.
Then I spray painted the small one white layer first and black layer last. The big frame was just the opposite. Black first and white last.
After they dried all the way (about 6 hours) I ran a piece of sand paper across both frames to give it that rustic look.
With the glass piece of the frame I sprayed about 4 separate coats of chalk board paint. Make sure you let each coat dry about an hour at a time. It will take about 24 hours to dry all together.
When everything is dry, put it all back together.
Before you write on your chalk board, make sure you do a thin layer of chalk around the whole chalk board just to cure it. Then erase and wright what ever you would like. Mine is a wedding gift so I put there initials and there wedding date on it.
All together this cost me
Big frame 5.00
Small frame 3.00
Spray paint 12.00
Chalk board paint 7.00
Total= 27.00 Can't beat that!!!!!
