Chalkboard Paint on Glass Update

Pier 1 Imports has the chalk board labels on glass in their flyer again.  There are different pieces but it's the same concept.  I scanned the image in for you.  The online flyer doesn't show this close enough for you to really see it.  It's shown on a bar a background decoration.  

The pieces are reasonably priced.  I don't know if it's cheaper to buy the supplies and make your own or not but then you can't say, "I made it"! 

The directions for MY version of Chalkboard on glass are HERE.
