From habitat plus - special paint effects
Turn walls, toy boxes and other surfaces into writable surfaces and magnetic noticeboards
As many homeowners have found out over the years, chalkboards are an extremely handy way to create a noticeboard, and are also a great way to give your home a changing canvas of artworks from whoever in the family is feeling creative at the time.
This Resene Wild Thing study has a gridded blackboard wall as well as a filing cabinet and plant pot in Resene FX Blackboard Paint. The upper wall is in Resene Black White.
With Resene FX Blackboard Paint, you can turn virtually any surface into a chalkboard – paint a whole wall, the back of a door or a low horizontal strip in the kids’ bedrooms. Or you can use Resene FX Blackboard Paint on smaller objects, like plant pots, furniture or herbs in tins. Resene FX Blackboard Paint comes in black. If you prefer a coloured chalkboard, use Resene FX Chalkboard Paint, which is available in a range of colours.
It doesn’t just stop with chalkboards. Resene have other clever products to help create handy and practical noticeboards.
Resene FX Magnetic Magic is a magnetic coating that you use as a basecoat to whatever you choose as your coloured topcoat. You can then use high-quality magnets to attach notices and photos.
Resene FX Write-on Wall Paint is a clear topcoat product that turns your painted wall into a ‘whiteboard’ where you can use whiteboard markers to write your messages or ideas, then simply wipe them away ready for the next brainstorm.
Did you know? You can create a chalkboard in any colour by using Resene SpaceCote Low Sheen paint. The low sheen surface lets you write in chalk, then easily clean it off afterwards.
