I love this chalkboard, but I didn't realize just how huge 24x36 was! It was going to go in my classroom, but as soon as my kids saw it and started having fun with it I knew I needed one for home and for my classroom. It's rustic and very stylish and I didn't realize that it's magnetic and the eraser magnetizes to the board?! Such a nice surprise. I love the look of this, and it easily writes and erases with any chalk I've tried. Now time to go get another one
