When Valerie McKeehan transformed an old picture frame into a “McKeehan’s Cafe” chalkboard for her kitchen, she instantly fell in love with chalk art. In 2012, she launched Lily & Val, an online chalkboard boutique filled with original gifts, cards, and home decor. Now, in THE COMPLETE BOOK OF CHALK LETTERING, Valerie invites you to the learn the ABCs of the craft in more than 60 lessons, from the basic letterforms to projects for greeting cards, holiday-themed designs, and more. Best of all, the book is a practice space, with three foldout chalkboards!
To celebrate the publication, blogs from around the country are trying out projects from the book and writing about their results. Each blog will also feature a giveaway and share their tips!
