Halloween Idea + Chalkboard Paint = Awesome Quiet Time Activty

Amazing Boyfriend spends a LOT of time sleeping. 

I don't give him crap about it because it's usually after chemo, but he also takes quite a few medicines that have a side effect of being drowsy/sleepy. He actually gets really frustrated sometimes with this side effect, but I try to reason with him that maybe he sleeps so much because his body needs it to heal. 

Anywho, since we basically live in one very large room, when he naps, I don't have a lot of options for my crafting. I can't use my Silhouette machine or the Viking because they both make too much noise, and I hate waking ABF up, because he's really grouchy when I do.

So if I'm not wasting time online, I'm usually painting...

Lately, I've been doing a LOT of painting. 

Aren't they fun? 

I found this idea on Pinterest here. I just took dollar store foam pumpkins and painted them with chalkboard paint. 

These are what I started out with...

Just add chalkboard paint and this is what you get...

The best part is that because they're painted with chalkboard paint, you can just wipe them off and start over.
