Check out this cool and easy way to spruce up ur door: just write on the glass door (or window) using erasable "chalk paint." The paint is really just water soluble stuff that easily comes off surfaces. This product is great for writing on doors and windows to add call outs your gift registry decals.
After you write your message using the Chalk paint pen, email us a picture. We'll post the best door decorations.
Note: this is not a stick of chalk. This is white 'ink' that goes on smoothly ...
