Chalkboard calendar
Sarah Cross: "I always have a calendar in my design workspace. I use it constantly because I always forget the date. It helps me organise my life."
This example of a home made chalkboard calendar is amazing. This would be very handy if you run a business or just a busy schedule. Having the information right in front of you at all times is a lot easier than checking your phone or computer for details of where and when.
Visit your local hardware or paint store to purchase some chalkboard paint. It is relatively cheap and is as easy to apply as normal paint. Bunnings has a good deal.
