DIY Vacation Countdown Chalkboard

I’m afraid I don’t have any step-by-step photographs for today’s craft, because it wasn’t me that made this, but my hubby! Go him right?! And what did he make? Well, only a DIY Vacation Countdown Chalkboard!

He first cut a piece of wood and sanded it before painting it with blackboard paint. When using blackboard paint you have to prime the wood first – or so he told me, but make sure you read the instructions on the tin first ;)

He then used vinyl lettering to write “Days to Disney!” at the top, along with a silhouette of Mickey Mouse. At the back are some hooks and string so that it can be hung on the wall like a picture frame.
