Easy DIY Black and White Chalk Paint Cake Plate

I’m in love with all things black and white so I’ve been crafting in lots of black and white lately. {grin} Like this DIY cake plate I whipped up with chalk paint. I like the texture it gave the wood. I made it for a tailgate party, but it’s perfect for my new office too. I just redesigned my studio space is gray/silver and black and white… and I love it. It’s so easy to add pops of color when I want them! I’ll show it to you later this week… just a few more tweaks to go!

Okay, let’s get crafty! To make this easy cake plate, you’ll need the following items. I picked them up from Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Store:

• Wooden candle stick
• Wooden circle
• White chalk spray paint
• Martha Stewart mini painters tape
• Plaid Paints Serious Black chalk paint
• Paint brush
• Elmer’s wood glue
• Optional: Chalkboard Cardstock

Super simple DIY:

1. Spray paint, two coats, each wooden piece and allow to dry overnight
2. Tape stripes
3. Paint between stripes and allow to dry for at least 30 minutes
4. Remove tape
5. Glue two wood pieces together and allow to set for 6 hours
6. Optional: Cut chalkboard cardstock in circle and place on top of cake plate. If you have a Cricut Explore, you can use my Design Space circle file and resize for your cake plate top.

Shop this project in my latest post with Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Store. And while you’re there, check out a few of my other posts on the Jo-Ann blog, The Creative Spark. This one is a super simple chalkboard cake topper.
