DIY: Chalkboard Clipboards

I made a little something-something for my roommates as a back to school gift. I bought this chalkboard paint at Home Depot and some clipboards from the dollar store. Then, I attached chalk that I got from Ikea on bakers twine and sealed it with Japanese tape. The post it dispenser came in two's for a dollar as well!




Also, this is a very easy wrapping gift you can do if you have a small gift to wrap and you don't have glassine bags in handy. Visit your nearest donut shop and ask them if you could have/buy a few donut bags. I got 50 of them for $3, which is a lot cheaper than say, if you were to buy glassine bags online. The ink from the stamp dries also super quick on these bags!
