Anyone else use a chalkboard in their school space? Anyone else’s look like this? The chalk buildup was out of control on mine, making it harder for my little scholars to read the chalkboard.
Then, I remembered a random pointer I had read somewhere quite a while back (I believe before Pinterest – gasp!). To use soda to clean your chalkboard. So, that’s what I did. I grabbed some soda, poured it into a small bowl, and dipped a clean dry paper towel into the soda. Rubbed soda all over my chalkboard and repeated the above steps until I removed as much chalk as possible.
Much better! I still think my painted-on-the-wall-chalkboard needs a top coat refresher of chalkboard paint, but it’s oh so much better for now! If yours looks like mine, then try it! It will be better!
