I'm addicted to chalkboard paint. I pretty much just walk around my house, holding the can in my hand, and trying to decide what I can spray next. If it stands still....I've probably sprayed it. If it doesn't stand still, I've waited until it was sleeping to spray it. Here is my latest concoction. I made some chalkboard wine glasses last year, the link is here. I decided to use the same concept with disposable cups for a 'school days' themed 'thing' I'm doing. It's just fun. And I know fun. :No need to comment on this statement.: I have two cans of chalkboard paint, so if you want to come have fun too, swing by anytime. Or if you want to make chalkboard drink labels for a party.....I just took some of those sticky address labels I had left over from a shower invitation I sent out.
I gave it one quick coat, let it dry...
...and went to work labeling glasses with chalk. Got my glass. Ready for the par-tay.

I can't believe you just used regular labels to make these. I LOVE this idea. There are so many times that I could have used this. Great idea!
But Christy, I want you use show me other chalkboard paint colors. (You need to read this with me using my 5 year old girl whiny voice) And on a side note, I can't believe you thought of and successfully painted a sticker. I think God bends the laws of crafting for you.
Wow, you are serious about chalkboard! I am going to do this for Thanksgiving. The kids always mix the cups up at the kids table. Great idea

Have you seen at Michaels, or other craft stores, they have chalkboard stickers, it comes in an 8 1/2 by 12 sheet, and you can cut it up any way you like, three to a package for about 3$!
