My chalkboard wall

 It finally happened!  
A wall full of quotes!  
I'm so happy!   
I started out with just painting black chalboard paint over what was a burgundy colored wall. 
Let it dry really well and starting collecting some favorite quotes 
{this is merely a handful of the MANY I have}. 
Amy was home last weekend and she went to work on writing them for me.  
I could have done it myself, but her writing is so much more creative and fun than mine. 
My inspiration came from pinterest and the wall I saw t here had one quote/writing over the entire wall. 
I loved it, but there was no way I could even think of settling on one thing to say.  
It was hard enough to narrow it down to these.  
And no, the wall is not quite complete...there's room for a few more, {yippy skippy}
we just ran out of time getting them up there.  
I'm not sure if I should seal the wall off as the chalk smears very easily. 
Anyone know if there is something I could/should use to finish this? 
Or maybe I will just let it smear and redo with new quotes every so often. :) 

and yes, I apologize for the blurry, glared pictures...not my talent to take pics!!


 

 My favorite life verse!!! 
  
SO much meaning in the one little verse!  BIG story behind it.
