Chalk Board Armoire

I'm spending a lot of my free time working on redecorating the kids bedroom. 
My latest project came per the request of my oldest, Sidney. 
She ask me to paint this armoire all in chalk board paint.
The armoire came from a friends garage, to my garage and then we moved it here to NC
 Sidney told one of the movers to put it in her room.
I used Valspar's Chalkboard paint 
(that I already own from pervious projects. Score-another FREE makeover!)
And a White Zig Marker from the Chalk Collection (from my scrapbook supplies).
Sidney loves taking quotes and verses and posting them around her room.
So the chalk board armoire was a perfect idea for her!
I experimented with some design ideas in chalk.
And then texted some pictures to friends and they casted their votes for their favorite drawer design.
I found this cute contact paper and lined all the drawers. In case you were wondering, I painted the whole armoire (legs, sides, top) all in the chalkboard paint.No priming necessary.
She finds a new phrase or two every other day and sometimes writes all over the armoire!
