| # | Steps |
|---|---|
| 1 | In a small mixing bowl, combine the non-toxic latex paint and fine unsanded grout. Mix thoroughly until the grout dissolves into the paint. |
| 2 | Gradually add water to the mixture, stirring continuously to ensure a smooth consistency without lumps. |
| 3 | Add the baking soda to the mixture. It helps to enhance the smoothness and adherence of the paint on the surface. |
| 4 | If desired, add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to give the paint a pleasant scent. Stir well. |
| 5 | Use a paint brush or roller to apply a thin layer of the mixture onto your chosen surface. Let it dry completely before applying a second coat, if needed. |
| 6 | Once the paint is dry, season your new chalkboard by rubbing a piece of chalk across the entire surface and then wiping it clean with a soft cloth. |
