Create your own special designs and show off your personality with these new kits from Chalk of the Town. Chalkboards are so popular now and these kits allow you to show off your designs until you are ready to change them up. Made for children and adults, these kits will encourage your creative side.
About Chalk of the Town
Wendy and sister Sondra have always been crafty, so when they noticed chalkboard surfaces trending in interior design they thought “imagine if we could put a chalkboard on a shirt to create a new shirt every day”! The sisters were determined to create a chalkboard-like surface that could accept chalk markers, not only smudgy traditional limestone chalk. As mothers themselves, Sondra and Wendy also felt the shirts had to be durable, machine washable and re-useable.
After much research and a bit of product testing help from their school-aged children, voila! Chalk of the Town t-shirts were born.
Some of our favorite items from Chalk of the Town include:
Royal Blue Long Sleeve Speech Bubble Kit
This long-sleeved shirt has a speech bubble on the chest that can be written on to shout out your thoughts for the day. The kit includes the 100% cotton T-shirt, 2 chalk marker (blue & white), Best Day emoji stencil, and the erasing cloth.
Raspberry Unicorn Short Sleeve T-Shirt Kit
This short sleeved pink shirt has a unicorn shaped chalkboard that can be decorated by your unicorn lover. The kit includes the 100% cotton T-shirt, unicorn stencil, 3 chalk markers (blue, green & pink), and the erasing cloth.
I’M READING Chalkboard Tote Kit
This tote measures 14″W x 15″H x 3″D and has “I’M READING…” printed on the front. Below that is a large chalkboard box that you can decorate and show off what you are currently reading. The kit includes the 12 oz. Cotton canvas tote, 2 chalk markers (1 white and 1 blue), and the erasing cloth.
Other accessories that can be used to add a chalkboard to your items include:
Birthday Stencil
This birthday-themed stencil can be used for either a boy or a girl. It can be used with chalk markers or regular markers and pencils. The stencil shapes included are a cake, a cupcake, balloon the word ‘Birthday’ as well as several other party symbols to use to create your own special birthday wishes.
Chalk of the Town Marker 4 Pack
This marker pack includes 4 fluorescent markers that can be used with any type of stencil or directly on a chalkboard. The bright colors will bring your designs to life!
Chalk of the Town Patch With 2 Chalk Markers Kit
This fabric chalkboard patch can be applied to just about any surface. It will stick to any flat, smooth surface or can be sewn onto a hat, bag, or shirt. Decorate with your chalk markers, wipe clean, and create something new tomorrow. The kit includes one 3.5 inches round fabric patch with a blue border, and 2 water-based, non-toxic chalk markers.
Caring for Your Designs
In between washing: Dampen the erasing cloth with water to remove the chalk paint from your chalkboard patch.
On wash day: Remove the design as above before washing on cold water setting. If machine drying, use a low heat setting. Do not iron over the chalkboard patch. Doing so could damage the patch.
Create Your Own Special Designs
Who doesn’t like having a personalized shirt or bag? However, finding one that says just what you want usually proves too frustrating for me. Even finding our names spelled correctly on something never happens! But, with the Chalk of the Town chalkboard patches, we can decorate our things any way we want.
Of course, the shirts and totes are super cute. And, our crew has loved creating their own designs using the templates or by simply drawing. Our youngest has been wearing her shirt with the letter of the week on Letter Day at preschool. For a four-year-old…this is super exciting because none of the other kids in school have a shirt with the letter of the week on it.
But the other items by Chalk of the Town really open up the idea to create your own special designs. By simply attaching one of the patches to an item, you can then make it all yours with the markers.
Chalkboard designs are all the rage right now, but being able to change the label or design by simply erasing it with a damp cloth encourages me to be more creative than I would be with permanent markers or paint. I like that the patches can be applied to just about any surface too.
These shirts, tote bags, and other chalkboard designs will make great gifts for Valentine’s Day. So order yours today, and create your own special designs that show off your thoughts to those you love.
