Take a look! These Melissa and Doug nesting boxes were repurposed into art supply bins that can be written on (with a coat of chalkboard paint). Although I wish I had thought of the idea (genius!), they were made by Shawn Ledington Fink who gave me permission to post her photos. She painted the nesting boxes with chalk paint, turning an outgrown toy into a great functional tool for her children's art space. How cool is that?
Shawn says she's writing a new mantra on the boxes every day.
I love chalkboard paint!
