I purchased from seller Perfecto
Gifts, Blackboard Wall Decals. With 2 rolls of almost 18 inches wide by 6 feet
long, we have plenty to go around. I cut one and placed on the wall in the
kitchen with my son’s chore list on it, another in the kitchen for shopping
list (if I don’t write it down it will be forgotten and if on paper, before I
leave, will be lost), one in my son’s play room for his use, one in his room
for use, one in the office for use when working on homework or my quilting, one
in the detached garage that my husband is using for his projects, whatever they
maybe, and I cut many small ones to put on storage containers marking Christmas
ornaments, outside decorations, inside decorations, lights, misc. Christmas,
Halloween, Fall, cookie cutters, flour, sugar, self-rising flour, etc.
On the back of the rolls is a graph,
making cutting a little bit easier and also making it more likely you will get
a nice straight cut! A WORD OF WARNING: Make sure your scissors or box cutter
is SHARP SHARP SHARP! If its the least bit dull, expect it to be a lot harder
to cut and get straight! Just saying, learn from my mistake!
Once cut, its just a matter of applying
it carefully and straight, leave the backing on and pull off just a corner to
get started, much easier to re-position and remove the bubbles as you go! This
product is a lot like Contact Paper and is similar in application. Once you
have it where you are happy with it lined up, began to pull the backing off
while holding it in place and smooth as you go. It sounds hard, but a few tugs
and taking your time will pay off big here!
Pros:
- Graph lines on back to help cut straight lines
- Lots of contact paper
- Can use anywhere
- Lots of uses:
- Walls for chore list
- Walls for grocery list
- Walls for kids to play on
- Walls in workshop for list or projects
- Walls of quilting/craft room list for projects & supplies
- Home office walls to write things that need done
- Walls near children's homework area to help them work out problems without the frustration of working on paper
- Plastic/glass containers for flour, sugar, cereal, etc.
- Great for marking containers in fridge with meals for each person or leftovers with made on date
- Cheaper than the old chalkboards
- Cheaper and easier to use than the chalkboard paint
Cons:
- When you wipe off, if not careful it can get the chalk colors on the wall
- Kids can peel it off
Overall: Definitely buy this if
you have kids, if you want to make lists you won’t lose, want to mark what is
in containers without using permanent marker –which you can not remove easily.
DISCLAIMER: I received this
blackboard at a reduced price in exchange for giving my honest opinion. I do
not have a relationship with the seller and manufacturer of this product.
