If you thought these projects that I shared last week were easy, this was can beat it as it took less than five minutes. I found this old vase at Goodwill for less than $3.
I bought some chalkboard spray paint at Hobby Lobby for $4. I sprayed on one good coat and let it dry for a few hours. Then wrote on it with chalk and filled it will fall leaves.

And that's it! I love how it looks on our fireplace mantle and it cost less than $7. Plus I'm excited to use it for other holidays as I can wipe it off and write something else! Sorry for the poor quality phone picture. Someday I'll learn how to take good pictures with a real camera.

Happy happy Fall!
