Pinterest count down plate


You may have seen this idea on Pinterest. A Christmas count down plate.  Well here it is! At least my version of it (so far)  The original one had a bow on the top, but I'm not sure if I'll add that yet or not.  It does need something....
These were REALLY easy and REALLY cheap to make!

The chargers were at Walmart for a whopping 98 cents each.
I already had a quart of black chalkboard paint- but I think if you have to buy it you would spend less than $10 (I made 6 plates and used maybe 1/5th of the can)

The one on pinterest had a little different words- it said "Christmas Countdown" and I think they were done in vinyl.  But since I don't have a vinyl cutting machine (tear) I hand painted the words on.

These were fun to make! Now I just have to buy some chalk for the one for my house.
 (the pens I bought online that were supposed to be chalk pens were not and almost ruined mine :/ VERY disappointing, so now I have to use regular chalk)
