Supplies You Need:

- Magnetic Primer

- Surface of your choice (wall, table, piece of wood)

- Plaster of Paris

- Matte Paint

- Container for mixing the paint

- Stir stick

Step 1:

Start by cleaning off the surface you are going to paint. If you are painting a part of your wall, be sure to measure and tape off the section you want painted. If you have to sand down any bumps or rough spots, be sure to do that before you wipe the wall down with your wash cloth.

While the surface dries, start prepping your magnetic primer by stirring. This can take about 10 minutes of constant stirring. Youll want to stir until it begins to thicken slightly youll be able to feel that its ready to go.

Step 2:

Start painting the magnetic primer on your wall/surface. We found, through trial and error, that if you want the magnets to actually hold items like paper or post cards, youll need to apply five coats of the magnetic primer. Trust us, we know thats not what you wanted to hear, but it totally pays off in the end.

As you paint, continue to stir the paint in the can, otherwise it will start to settle and separate.

In between each coat, wait about 30 minutes for it to dry before applying the next coat.

Step 3:

As the magnetic primer dries, lets start mixing the chalkboard paint. For this recipe, we will use plaster of paris, paint and water. A good rule of thumb for creating your mixture is 3 parts paint, 2 parts Plaster of Paris, and 1 part water.

Depending on how thick your coats of paint are, you may need to wait about 4 hours until you can start painting again. Youll want to make sure your magnetic primer is completely dry before you paint anything on top of it.
