Chalkboard Signs

At the heart of our creations lies a commitment to unparalleled quality and craftsmanship. Each of our magnetic chalkboards is meticulously crafted from premium cold-rolled steel, then baked with a porcelain enamel coating. This not only lends a smooth finish but also ensures our blackboards are non-porous and resistant to stains and the dreaded ghosting effect often left by chalk markers.

Our passion is to provide craft supplies that aren't just enjoyable to use but are built to last, bringing endless fun and durability to your creative projects.

We're thrilled when our dedication to quality shines through in customer experiences. Maryann from Canyon, Texas, shared her delight with us:

"Love my new craft! The chalkboard's price was fair, and the quality surpassed my expectations."

It's feedback like this that fuels our mission to keep delivering excellence in every part of our craft kits.

Our outdoor chalkboards are specially treated to prevent rust and to be water-resistant. However, we do not recommend letting your chalkboard sit in puddles and bringing your chalkboard indoor during high winds.

Yes! All of our chalkboard signs have been designed to hang both vertically and horizontally. Each chalkboard has welded D rings in each corner. If you would like to hand the chalkboard, simply wrap a wire around the D rings to create a hanging chalkboard.

Chalkboard Markers

  • painting rocks
  • decorating t-shirts
  • coloring easter eggs

Our magnetic stencils can be used on any metal surface such to stencil milkcans, watercans or mailboxes. You can also use our stencils on wood, glass and stone with the aid of a stencil spray adhesive.
