I just renewed my love for chalkboard walls with these illustrated trims and frames (and even floors) from Anthropologie's July Catalogue. Even the plug-ins are drawn in. So fun!

Love it! Reminds me of Joseph Gordon-Levitt's apartment in 500 Days of Summer.

I love the idea of this.

i think the chalk board head board is brilliant- especially for renters. i would love to do this to an entry way and leave chalk for guests to personalize especially since i have very talented friends and i love how they draw!

Anthro really knows how to make you love something even more :) These images show off great uses of chalkboard walls!

Those are the coolest walls ever! Every school should have one in their classrooms and every artist should have one in their studios - with dustless chalk of course!!!

I love it, I recently painted a wall of my kitchen with chalk paint. Let the creativity flow!
