Since opening bite-sized I have a lot of white powder in my house: all-purpose flour, cake flour, white sugar, castor sugar, iodized salt, sea salt, baking soda, baking powder... the list goes on! I have them all in air-tight containers, but how to tell them apart? How do you write on plastic? Chalkboard paint!

my blank "canvas".
I found these buckts (that stack when not in use) at the Great Canadian Superstore for $18. |
 |
block off the section with paint tape and prime.
I used CIL ANYWHERE primer from Home Depot |
 |
once primer has dried, put on the first coat of chalkboard paint.
I used Rust-Oleum Chalkboard from Home Depot |
 |
| a side view after the second coat. |

| the final product, alongside my new Harrod's apron |
And there you have it! You'll notice the top two containers are missing labels; that's because I pulled them off when i was removing the paint tape. Be careful! I should have sanded the plastic for a better stick, so I'll do that this time around. Can't wait to use my chalkboard paint again! I'm thinking on the freezer so we can mark what went in there and when ;)
