I’ve been dreaming of this couture collection for the longest time! I am in LOVE with chalkboard! Chalkboard is ultra trendy right now. You see it in home décor, organizational products, parties, and weddings. Chalkboard is classic, clean, and very very stylish!
The classroom is the PERFECT place for chalkboard décor. When I think of school, I instantly associate it with chalkboard and chalk! Chalkboard can be incorporated with so many themes and color combinations. Really, the possibilities are ENDLESS!
I happen to adore this room. I am a vintage girl and this room screams “traditional old school,” which I am so drawn to. I found this great plaid ribbon, paired it with chalkboard and red/black/white accents, and you’ve just created a “vintage school” look with a modern twist!
Simply Gorgeous!
In addition, this black and white collection is extremely economical. If you were worried about using too much colored ink to create printables for your classroom, this is the collection for you!
Another added BONUS…most of the chalkboard collection is EDITABLE! Do you get nervous when it is time to write a name on a nameplate or label because you don’t want to mess it up? No worries! Just type write into the label and you have perfect handwriting every time!
I hope you love this collection as much as I do!

Melanie,
You’ve done it again! Very clean. I have had red, black and white in my classroom for the past two years and absolutely loved that color scheme. My favorite accent is the red bins. How are the labels attached?
Hi Holly!
I used a few dabs of hot glue and it holds perfectly!
I actually made a mistake, the bins are from Target. I need to go back and change that!
I love it. I have my room done in black, white, and Red. All of which came from your amazing site. I love every product that I have purchased from you and use all of it in my classroom. Thank you for sharing your wonderful designs and products. I can hardly wait to get my hands on this new Chalkboard charm.
God Bless
Oh Tina, that is so nice! Thank you so so much!
LOVE IT! As I’ve already done my classroom for the year and can’t wait 11 months to use this, I’m going to use it for my newly re-organised pantry. It will be perfect! Thank you :0)
Perfect idea!!!
Simply beautiful! Love the classic charm of the chalkboard. Makes we want to go back to using the classic apple theme in my classroom and throw in a bit of your chalkboard charm.
Just love it!
I know what you mean…love classic apple with the chalkboard!!!
Melanie – I am a very new fan, but this is by far my most favorite of your Classroom Couture collection! Keep up the great work, you are a true inspiration!
WOW that is beautiful! Melanie I like how you vary your themes between fun and sophisticated. This is a great back to school classroom theme!
Yes! That is exactly what I try to do. I’m so glad you notice! Thanks for all of your support!
THIS IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR! I have been drooling for an hour. Its perfect! Its exactly what I have been dreaming of. Oh… I so can’t wait to buy it all up and decorate my classroom!!!! YES YES YES!!! Now if only Creative Thinking Press would just buy your designs and print them out so I can save money printing I would be in Heaven!
I am so happy you LOVE it! I love it too!!!
So beautiful yet again! This classroom actually makes me wish I taught an upper el just so I could have a classic chic look.
LOVE!!!!!!!!!! I had so much fun looking at the pictures!!
Melanie, it looks spectacular. My favorite part is always the lanterns. I just put some up in my room, though they don’t look as nice. I will have to send you pics eventually.
Melissa
Very cute! It looks so nice! That all black globe is a really cool twist. Was that how you bought it, or did you paint it?
LOVE this! I do not teach in the classroom anymore, but this could also be used in my homeschool room. Love your style!
Of course, I’ve already ordered this! It’s beautiful! Font name, please.
Love this style. Where did you get the chalkboard fonts?
Thanks!
Hello Melanie! I used your rockstar stuff this year for my classroom and I am so excited to used your chalkboard stuff for next year. I am expecting twins early next year so I am using my work day to tear down and rebuild my classroom I am excited to get shopping for classroom stuff. I have to admit I am a font buying virgin. Usually someone just loads them onto my computer. I saw the list you suggested but I am wondering if you could tell me how to go about purchasing them. That prob sounds crazy to you but any help would be great
I love your stuff but I only allow myself to get on once in a while or I would want to change my theme more often lol
“Chalkboard Charm” is the best ever!!! Once I saw this collection, I couldn’t sleep at night thinking about my plans for my new classroom. I love the clean and sophisticated, yet classic look! I bought your digital collection this morning and have 75% of it DONE!!! Amazing !!! Very simple to download & edit !!! I could barely turn my head the printer was spitting it out so quickly !!! My entire classroom done without ever leaving my computer….worth EVERY penny !!! Thank you so much!!!
Oh Marcia! That is the nicest message EVER! You have no idea how much I appreciate this! Thank you! Thank you!
