Chalkboard labels on upcycled glass jars

Ever since I've discovered chalkboard paint I've been going 

a little nuts about labeling everything. The best use I have 

so far is covering a glass jar with a name of a local hospital 

logo on it. It was a brilliant way of covering the unsightly logo 

as well as using the label to identify what's in the jar. 

My family always wondered why there were pebbles in the pantry. 

Now they know it's my favorite sweetener for tea. 

1. Clean out the jar and dry thoroughly. I used a spray can 

of chalkboard paint but you can use the brush

on variety from a can.

 2. Prep the area for painting with painters tape. I strategically placed the rectangular area over the logo on the jar so it will get covered by the paint. The rest of the jar I covered with plastic wrap to keep any mist of paint from getting on the outside area. If you are using a small paintbrush you may skip the plastic wrap if you are careful enough to paint inside the blue painters tape.

3. Let the chalkboard paint dry for one hour then take off the painters 

tape and let it dry for another hour before you write on it.
