DIY Chalkboard Painted Jar
Materials:
- 1 glass Mason Jar or Kilner jar
- 1 can chalkboard spray paint
- 1 can of spray primer (clear or white)
Directions:
Step 1: If you are using a new mason jar, you are all set to begin priming your jar. If you are using an old jar, make sure it is washed and dried. Use a little bit of rubbing alcohol on the outside of the jar to remove any other residue.
Step 2: Using your spray primer, prime your jar in a well ventilated area. I spray paint all my projects in our garage on a foldable table and lay down a large flat board to keep the paint from getting on the garage floor.
Step 3: Spray the outside of the mason jar with the spray primer and let dry.
Step 4: Once the spray primer has dried, spray the jar with 1 coat of the best chalkboard paint and let it dry completely.
Step 5: Turn the mason jar upside down and spray with a second coat of chalkboard paint getting any spots you may have missed the first time. Let dry completely.
