Chalkboard cloth--does it work?
#1
I saw a pattern for a placemat using chalkboard cloth. Sounds like a great idea for my grandson. Trying to find some is another problem. I found one site on line that had it for $8.40 a yard, but the shipping was $12.66. I won't buy from sites that have that high shipping rates. But before I spend time researching, I wanted to see if anyone has tried this. The only consistent thing I see is that it has to be "primed" first with chalk. :thumbup: or :thumbdown:

Be on the lookout for free shipping codes. A lot of people put them on here when they find them. I tend to use it when I just want to see how the service is or quality of material. I will buy just a small amount as a trial run.

I bought a couple of yards at Joannes last summer with a 50% off coupon. I simply used it as a tableclothe the kids could color on while I made meals. Worked well, you just have to prep it by rubbing it all over with chalk and wiping it off first.
