Another helpful tip is for when you need to really clean your chalkboard : use a soft cloth or non scratch sponge, dampen it in vinegar and wipe away... repeat if necessary. At the end you will have a residue free, chalk free, streak free board

The chalk transfer was interesting. If you want your chalk to stay on the menu board longer, I wet it and it shows up more vibrantly. Especially coloured chalk.

Hi Becca! Love love love all of your tips! I don’t know if this question really applies to this but.. how can you prevent ghosting when using a chalk marker/pen? I season every board but when it comes time to take off the marker-it always shows up! No matter how I clean it off!! If you know/could show us a quick tip video of this you would be a life saver! (I end up having to re-paint them with chalk paint to get a clean background... sooo time consuming) Thanks for all you do! I love learning new things from you-so easy to follow.. and I feel like we’re friends bc you mess up and laugh about it. Keep it up girl!

Hi Becca! I honestly didn’t know any of the chalk tips. As a kid, I learned about penciling the back of a design on paper then tracing over the front to transfer the design ( works similarly to using carbon paper), but I never considered using that technique for chalk-that’s cool. I love the seasoning then shadows ideas.
