USING MY WHITEBOARD PAINT

Today we finally used our whiteboard.

Pros:
We really enjoyed it. It was convenient for writing down a word that someone needed spelling. It was great for demos on a subject that needed a bit more explanation before doing a work sheet. It was fun and entertaining for Indy without using up half my printer paper :)

I loved the wall and the table and would recommend doing the table to any homeschool family thinking of using whiteboard (or dry erase paint). I took a picture of the wall but pictures of white walls don't show so great - hmm wonder why? :)

Cons:
What I wasn't thrilled about was the wipe down. We have a dry erase eraser. It wiped it down but I could still see a trace of the marker let behind.

Solution:
HOWEVER it did wipe down completely with a damp cloth. If you use a whiteboard then you know that you can't write on a wet whiteboard.
SO...
We wiped down with the eraser during a lesson, and with a damp cloth between lessons. This worked well.

Cost Breakdown:
Can of Rustoleum Dry Erase paint to cover 7ft X 7ft area from Lowes $31 CND
Our table is about 4ft X 6ft and our wall is a little over 5 ft X 6ft
2 foam rollers from the dollar store $2 CND
1 set of 3 replacement rollers $1.25 CND
paint tray $1 CND
total: $35.25 CND

This whiteboard is almost as big as mine (minus the table) it costs $569.99
The quality may be a bit better, but $534 worth? No Way!
