We are starting on the nursery and we have to paint the closet door (it was original with the home) We replaced all the entry way doors so they are panelled and new. The closet doors are an off white so when you are inside the nursery it contrasts with the white baseboards/ new door....ect.

Point being, now that we are actually going to be using this room we are going to paint the door (possibly get a new one). I was thinking since we are painting it that we would do one side as a chalk board because that seems like a fun addition. That being said, I am worried about the dust and the hassle.

Is this one of those things that looks great on Pinterest and is a total PITA in real life?

I could either do the whole door or partial like these pics ..
