Chalk board: an original “accessory” in a modern interior (26 photos)
Content
The slate in the interior is an original solution for large rooms and compact rooms, the design of which requires attractive accents. Functional, extraordinary, affordable in terms of pricing policy, easy to maintain - all these advantages make such a spectacular attribute more and more popular and in demand.
Functional potential
An ordinary chalk board can take its place of honor not only in the classroom or student audience, but also in modern apartments. It is erroneous to assume that this is just a decorative element.
A black wall board will surprise you with its solid functionality. However, it all depends on how the tenants of the apartments react to the new attribute and whether they want to take full advantage of the exclusive advantages of the board.
To the delight of children
A chalk board without a frame is a great addition to a nursery. This functional decor will delight children of all ages. Reusable “canvas” young talents can use for drawing, for homework, to create their personal notes.
The design of chalk boards in the children's room should be extremely creative and unusual. The slate is often placed in the frame to give it more "elegance." A double-sided magnetic slate board will also become a zone where a child can store his favorite magnets. The main thing is that the blackboard in a child does not cause negative emotions.
Creative in the kitchen
No matter how strange it may sound, kitchen boards for drawing are simply necessary. It is worth adding such an attribute and after some time the hostess will not be able to imagine how she used to cope without such surfaces in the kitchen.
A black wall board will be needed for such processes:
- Recording a new recipe (there is no need to rush around with a notebook or gadget in the kitchen, because the whole recipe is painted on the wall);
- Important notes for the whole family (you can not stick stickers on the refrigerator, indicating to the household what and where lies, what and when to buy);
- A detailed menu (housewives can write in advance on the wall a list of goodies prepared for the arrival of all family members).
Educational measures can also be carried out using a drawing board. Moms can leave eloquent inscriptions on the board indicating to other household members about their direct responsibilities: taking out the garbage, washing dishes and other important household processes.
For work and leisure
Chalk boards for the house can be located in the office, and even in the bedroom. In any of the rooms they will play an important role.
In the course of work, the black chalk board will become a kind of “eternal” notebook, where you can write down your thoughts, fix ideas on the surface of the canvas, write down urgent information and suddenly arrived. Whenever possible, important data is transferred to paper or stored electronically. Empty thoughts and unnecessary information are simply deleted.
Painting chalk boards will help you relax, tune in to the right wave. Or maybe a drawing made with his own hands will inspire new achievements after some time.
In the bedroom, a black wooden board plays the role of a bright decor. Lovers can draw together on a wide canvas or leave individual wishes of love to each other.
Unique decor
Even a small wallboard will be able to qualitatively change the situation in any room: in the kitchen, in the corridor, in the children's room or even in the toilet. However, the large chalk board looks especially impressive, where the tenants of the apartment can create their own “masterpieces” with their own hands.
Surprisingly, each new drawing will transform the room beyond recognition. Even if there are no talented artists among households, simple patterns, abstraction, plain ornaments or curly elements are no worse than large-scale and realistic images.
However, the child will receive special pleasure from all this creative process. For educational purposes, the baby can be delegated a "particularly important task." His mission (every day, every week, or as the family council decides) to change the design of the apartment, creating new drawings.
The process itself will bring a lot of joy to the child and his parents. In addition, the smallest member of the family will know that a certain kind of responsibility is assigned to him in the house, which is an important point in raising a child.
Forms and materials for creativity and decor
The traditional shape is a rectangle or square. The most popular material is wood. The simplest and most demanded model is a wall school chalk board for children.
When a finished chalk board is selected in the interior, it is important to consider the dimensions first of all, correlating with the area of the room itself, as well as the presence of other objects in the room. It is not necessary to place the board on the wall. A bright element can be entered into the dimensions of the cabinet door, thereby giving the furniture an extravagant look and enhance the functional potential.
If the standard chalk boards in the interior can be called classic, then the finish with the help of specific slate paint looks much more progressive and modern. The peculiarity - the coloring composition fits well on absolutely any surface, from the unprocessed wall in the corridor to the brand new kitchen door.
Slate chalk boards can be created of any size and shape, adapting to the individual characteristics of each room. In fact, the drying paint forms a rough layer on which you can draw.
By the way, such static chalk boards for the home can be transformed into panels for photographs. If you are bored with drawing and the board, as such, is no longer relevant, you can put photographs on a black canvas. Such installations are supplemented with 3D stickers, various applications and other interesting decorative elements.
The wildest fantasies
For creative experiments, a refrigerator with a worn coating is also suitable. After a magical transformation, he will look spectacular not only in the kitchen.
Many owners of small apartments, trying to fit in the kitchen with more furniture, often have a bulky refrigerator in the hallway, hallway or even the living room. Now it’s not just a storehouse for products, but also a board for drawing: a children's area for creativity and a completely necessary “housework”.
Another bold decision: cover the interior door leaf with slate paint and magnetize the surface. This will turn out a double-sided magnetic-chalk board. For children - a real find.
Chalk coating can completely change the look of old dishes. You can use anything you like as the main subject for experiments: old containers for spices, mugs, bowls, bowls, containers for cereals and even simple cans. Nobody will use such attributes for their intended purpose, but to make an installation on a kitchen shelf would be the right idea.
How to make chalk decor for painting?
Magnetic chalk board for children is another important advantage.This striking attribute of a modern interior can be purchased for ridiculous money. In addition, there are several ways to add a twist to the interior:
- Purchase a finished product at the store. Magnetic slate board is usually selected taking into account the parameters of the room;
- With the help of stickers with slate texture, any surfaces and objects in the house are independently processed. By means of a film it is possible to change a cabinet door or a small part of a wall;
- Paint the prepared surface with slate paint. The painting composition is convenient in work, so for children you can paint most of the free wall, transforming it into an “eternal” canvas for young artists.
Each option is convenient and attractive in its own way. From what exactly the person will ultimately choose, the mood and color of the room where the new catchy decor will be located will depend.
About the disadvantages
Before the magnet-chalk board becomes the center of aesthetic attraction in the room, one should recall some of the inconveniences associated with this type of decor. In general, there are several key shortcomings:
- The dark surface gives gloominess to the room (it is important to correctly beat the black canvas in the interior);
- During active use, the aesthetic canvas is covered with scratches from crayons;
- A rough surface is sometimes difficult to clean from a single pattern to apply a new ornament. Whitish spots are sometimes impossible to remove even with a wet rag;
A slate is a real dust generator. In the children's room and in the kitchen, such an attribute will be especially insidious and add to the housewife's work. Do not forget about the crayons, traces of which can be found anywhere. If the house has small children, they will happily spread whitish dust throughout the house.
Those who are not afraid of such minor difficulties can safely embark on creative experiments and complement their apartments with new exclusive decor. When the drawing board gets bored, it can be transformed into another element to decorate the room.
