Getting Creative: DIY Chalkboard

October 3, 2014

Hi I'm Natalie and I wasn't blessed with the natural gift of creativity. I do my best with what I know, I try to be patient with myself, and I'm glad to look back and realize I've definitely improved. Nonetheless, my lack of creativity has not defeated me.

Hi, my name is
