Blackboard walls

These are a few examples of how can you be creative with your kitchen and other rooms around the house. I love the warmth that brings to the design and adds a very personal touch to it. 

Recipes, song lyrics, doodles, To Do lists and messages are some examples on how cool this could be. It's very easy and cheap to do as well. 

Other simple idea is to grab an old mirror frame, paint it and use it with the blackboard piece to accentuate it in a classical and hip way.
