. . . Chalkboard Toy Bucket . . .

I actually did this project for my son's Easter Basket with the intention of using it as a toy bucket afterwards.  It was an easy and quick way to dress up a Dollar Store bucket.  I like that I can label the bucket with whatever toys he's putting in it on any given day.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

•  The bucket came from the Dollar Store and I had the chalkboard spray paint

•  My husband taped off the space that I wanted th paint to go (I can't believe he got involved in one of my many crafts but he had fun doing it)

• Almost ready for paint

•  I added paper all around the bucket so no paint would get on it anywhere

• Sprayed the bucket on the front porch because it was raining--not the best conditions for spray paint

• I did about 3 coats to cover it nicely

• I removed the paper and let the chalkboard paint dry completely

• The reveal

• I added black and white polka dot washi tape to form a border and dress up the bucket a little more
