All you need are:
- A large, empty wall space
- Chalkboard paint
- Painter’s tape
- Chalk or chalk markers
First of all, you have to clean and prepare the wall surface. Then, tape off the area you want to transform into a calendar. Next, apply several coats of chalkboard paint, following the manufacturer’s instructions and allow the paint to dry thoroughly. Once it dries, remove the painter’s tape and voila! Your very own chalk wall calendar is ready for action! You can use chalk or chalk markers to write down your schedule, add fun designs, or leave motivational messages.
Not to forget! A pro tip just for you, get creative with colours, patterns, and shapes to make your calendar truly unique. You can even incorporate different sections for each family member or add a space for notes.

Calling all aspiring string sorcerers! If you’re ready to wield your DIY wand and conjure up some jaw-dropping visual enchantment, then wall string art is your ticket to becoming a bona fide wizard of creativity! Armed with a handful of materials and a sprinkle of patience (and maybe a dash of magic), you’ll weave strings of pure wonder that will have your guests gasping, “Is this witchcraft or just an incredibly talented human?” Brace yourselves for a world of mesmerising designs that will make your walls the talk of the town. Get ready to unleash the magic and let your string art skills cast a spell of awe on all who behold it!
Here’s some of the materials that you need!
- A wooden board or canvas
- Nails
- Hammer
- Colored string or embroidery floss
- Scissors
- Design template (optional)
Firstly, decide on your design or pattern. You can find inspiration online or create your own. Next, if you are using a design template, attach it to the wooden board or canvas. Then, carefully hammer the nails into the board along the outline of your design, leaving a bit of the nail exposed. Once all the nails are in place, remove the template (if used). You can then tie one end of the string to a nail and start weaving it back and forth around the nails, following your desired pattern. Continue weaving until you’ve covered the entire design area and once you’re satisfied with the string coverage, tie off the string and trim any excess. Lastly, all you need to do is just hang your wall string art masterpiece and revel in its beauty!
Good thing is, you can experiment with different string colours and thicknesses to create striking contrasts and texture. You can even create multiple pieces and arrange them in a cluster for an eye-catching gallery effect!
