Basic Cooking Measurements & Kitchen Conversions Chart DIY (featuring Rustoleum)
I am always looking for ways to make cooking easier and more enjoyable. So I turned my kitchen cabinet door into a basic cooking measurements and kitchen conversions chart. You can make one, too and take the guesswork out when preparing your favorite recipes this time of year.
Equipment
- drill or screwdriver
Materials
- Painter's tape
- Rustoleum chalkboard paint
- Measurement & Conversion stencils
- Chalkpaste
- Optional chalk paint pens
- Adhesive hooks
- Goof off
Instructions
- Remove the kitchen cabinet from it's hinges using a screwdriver or a power drill.
- Using painter's tape, tape the parameter of the cabinet door and make sure to cover outside edges as well to prevent any overspray.
- Spray Rustoleum's Chalkboard Spray paint in smooth even strokes across the cabinet door. Apply a thin layer and allow it to dry an hour. Then add a second thin layer and allow it to dry completely.
- carefully remove the painters tape from the edges.
- Grab your favorite measurements & conversions chart or use this one for FREE!
- Create a stencil using a cutting machine or a LED stencil maker.
- Line up the stencils onto the top of the chalkboard section of the cabinet door making sure to space them out to include hooks and measuring cups.
- Line up each row using a strip of painter's tape as a guide. Apply chalk paste to stencils one at a time.
- Add adhesive hooks under each cooking measurement and hang meauring spoons and measuring cups!
