Chalk painting ideas

I love chalk and chalk paint. We have 1 wall in the kitchen and a chalk board for notes. The kids love writing on them and it is also useful to post the groceries that are needed.
Here are some really cute ideas that I have come across for future projects.

Below is a shot of our chalk board in the kitchen with all the kids ramblings on it.
