I love it
By ismile

Clip to ScrapBook   
I painted my bulletin board two years ago and loved it. The biggest pro...you never have to paper your boards again if you don't want to! Of course, the option is there if you would like, but they look great without it.

I just moved classrooms at the end of this year and painted my boards before I left for summer. (I also painted my front wall!!!!) I chose a light blue for my wall and a light green for my boards. I think it was called green onions or celery stalk. I had looked at both at Wal-Mart. I picked colors that I thought were bright, cheery, and calming. I think I read somewhere about blue
and green being condusive to the learning environment. I think it was in a Susan Kavolic book actually. Plus...I enjoy those colors.

Also, when painting, know that it will suck in a lot of paint, so be prepared to put on multiple coats.

Cons....can't think of any!!!:)
