Easy Tutorial for Giant Chalk Art. My good friend Erik hired me to help him design his new office space for his laser hair removal company named “Simplicity“.

Easy Tutorial for Giant Chalk Art

This was my first non-residential space and it was a blast. The over all office has a warehouse feel so when it came time to design the break room, I suggested one wall be a giant chalk board. The wall is pure black but since there are huge bright windows on the adjacent wall, it doesn’t feel dark at all. Strangely enough, it really warms up the space. Burlap & DenimBurlap & Denim. I’ve been kind of obsessed with chalk board signs lately (check out my Pinterest board).

While creating a gallery wall in my entry, I decided to add a large chalkboard that I have. I wanted to create a temporary piece of art for the summer in black and white to match the gallery (I posted about the gallery wall HERE). First I gathered the necessary supplies: paper towels, chalk, Q Tips, and Aqua Net (also needed but not pictured: ruler, tape measure, and level). Then I measured the board and created a layout that I liked. About the beachy layout: I love the art (by Katie Daisy) with the quote “I long for Salt Air in my hair”, we take a road trip from UT to Laguna Beach every summer, and we love to sit on the sand or surf in the ocean as a family.

I added an orange grid and printed off the template. With a damp paper towel, I wiped down the chalkboard and let it dry. I copied the grid onto the chalkboard using a ruler, tape measure and level.

Tous les détails seront débossés avec la même intensité. Par ailleurs, le débossage étant standard pour toutes les commandes, son intensité ne peut être modifiée. Par contre, vous pouvez jouer sur l'épaisseur des objets à débosser afin de les rendre plus ou moins perceptible. Le débossage va-t-il marquer le verso du papier ?

Sheryl’s going to be blogging how she made this lovely message tree and pretty wooden signs, so definitely watch out for that! Initially, the decoration team wanted me to work on a calligraphy mural. I’m like.. it’s going to be tough if we’re not printing it out. I suggested to paint the wall with chalkboard paint, then maybe, just maybe, I can translate some hand lettering skills onto the chalkboard! Today, I’m going to share the behind the scenes photos + a video of how this project came together. I started with covering the wall with chalk since it’s a new chalkboard wall. Then, I divided the board into three parts, where I thought it would make the most sense to create the main text on. Chalk and a damp towel were my best friends that day. After working on the middle section, I started lightly sketching the right part again. Writing in multiple fonts was definitely hard.
