Starbucks Family Menu Chalk Art Tutorial~And Giveaway!

Today's DIY project tutorial is part two of a three-part series of holiday decor projects inspired by Starbucks.  When I think about the holidays and my family getting together, the first thing that comes to mind is food.  We are all about "our food," so I knew right away my project was going to be about Christmas dinner.

To get inspired for this post and to prepare for our Christmas dinner, I visited my local Starbucks.  Aside from the amazing smells, one of the things that always grabs my attention are the gorgeous menu boards and chalk drawings.






Family, food, and chalk art all added up to inspire my project: the Family Menu Board.  I created a decorative menu board of our Christmas dinner, giving credit to each family member for his or her known specialty.






Here's how I did it...
I started with a basic child's art easel I picked up a while ago at a local thrift shop.  I wiped it down to remove the old chalk dust.  Then, I took it outside and sprayed the wood legs black with satin spray paint.  I also gave the chalkboard surface a fresh new coat of chalkboard paint.






While the paint was drying, I hit the art supply store for the following supplies:
wax-free transfer paper (found with the sewing patterns),





bistro chalk markers (thick and thin),




and regular white chalk.
To start, I printed out a few words in a large basic font on my computer.






Using the tracing paper, word outlines and a pencil, I traced a few key words onto the chalkboard.  This helped me with spacing and the basic shapes of the letters.  
After I had a general design mapped out, I used the bistro chalk markers to embellish the sketchings.  As I went along, I used regular chalk to lightly freehand words and illustrations before using the chalk markers to add the final details.
I kept a damp rag close by to erase mistakes. 







I titled the board "Family Christmas Menu 2012." 






I included specialties from relatives who are still with us and those we remember.  
The menu board is not only decorative but it's a beautiful representation of our family traditions.






I warned you that my family was all about food.  I really could use two of these, as I ran out of room.  
 My brother's bread, my sister-in-law's salad, my daughter's chocolate mousse, my aunt's desserts and my husbands appetizer didn't make it.  Hopefully these dishes still show up on the Christmas dinnertable after they see this post.






A few helpful tips: First, using a level, you can lightly sketch guide lines to help keep the drawings straight.  The lines can be erased when you're done.  Second, I learned quickly not to worry about every letter and drawing being perfect; in the end, the big picture will look great.  Third, if Grandma's jello mould is going on the list, don't forget the "u" in mould.
Jello mould, yum...Jello mold, ew.

  7. I most love seeing the excitement of the children and sharing the true reason for Christmas which was the best gift of all. Also, focusing on presence more than presents...to a child...this ultimately will mean everything.

  9. I come from a family of 7 and we hardly get to see each other during any of the holidays. We make a special effort to gather on Christmas Eve so this is always a special time of year for me.

  15. I love how we all stay in the same 4 bedroom ranch, too many people AND not enough room, all sharing 2 bathrooms, tripping over each other, not enough hot water for showers in the morning, windows fogged up, and kids jumping on the grown ups in the morning to wake up! Now that's Christmas! :)

    ReplyDelete
  16. I love how all of us 'kids' have doubled back with families, still stay in the same 4 bedroom ranch, tripping over each other, using all the hot water, sharing just 2 bathrooms, fogging up the windows everyday, and the little ones jumping on the grown-ups in the morning to wake us all up! Now that's Christmas! :)

  19. Love starting new traditions with my little family of 4. Cannot wait to see my 11 month old's reaction to everything. This is just the prettiest holiday of the year. I hate when it's over. Wish it lasted longer!!

  20. With four daughters, if I had to pick just one thing, I would probably have to say it's baking cookies, decorating them, and delivering to as many people as we can!

  21. Our children all live in different areas of the country and we have not all been together for Christmas for years. We moved from our extended family to be near at least one of our children and grandchildren. I wish we all lived closer and could all be one big family for the Holidays but that is just not going to happen. So the best part of the season for us to just enjoy each other when we do see each other--before during and after the actual Holiday. Time to just be with each other is so precious...

    ReplyDelete
  22. I love being with people that love me regardless of my inadequacies. It is just nice to be yourself, relax and have fun.

  23. I love having all the kids together and watching the cousins play. I especially like the after-dinner chat over coffee that the women of the family partake in.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I love just the fact that we are all together. My husband works a lot, so anytime we can just be together as a family is just such a wonderful feeling, especially during the holiday season.

Seeing the joy on little kids' faces, relaxing with loved ones after all the cooking and unwrapping is done, cuddling on the couch to watch favorite movies, and of course enjoying all the favorite foods! It's too hard to pick just one!

    ReplyDelete
  67. Simple time spent together with family is the most precious gift each year. Aging grandparents and growing teenagers make each Christmas more special than the last.

  76. The holidays are the only time that we all get together anymore. We have great food and good laughs. It also forces me to deep clean the house.

  77. I love spending time with my family. I am looking forward to seeing my kids play in the snow this year. Since moving to Florida(from Michigan) we miss making snow men.

    ReplyDelete
  78. I love having the honest to goodness time to take it all in. To truly appreciate the conversations my little ones have with one another and to watch their eyes light up with possibilities at the sight of an empty box. I love watching my husband truly laugh with his eyes and feel blessed for our three wild blessings. We both work 60 hours a week and homeschool the boys and then there's all their extra-curricular activities. A day off as a family is truly a treasure!

  79. I, too, love food. Especially around the holidays when it brings families and traditions together. A menu board like this is a great way to give gratitude for everyone's contributions. I have always admired the menu boards at many of the local bistros, restaurants and local coffee shops. Thanks for this post!

  89. What I love most about Christmas is being able to see the smiles and brightly lit up eyes of each individual (young and old) when they hear Christmas carols and open their gifts. Freshly fallen snow on Christmas Eve and Morning is a delightful surprise too. There are so many wonderful things to say about Christmas. Many people are joyful around that time of year. Laughter can be heard more often. Playing games, sledding, ice skating, and traditionally baking are all the fantastic things we do as a family instead of watching television. It is a magical time of the year:)

    ReplyDelete
  94. AS I grow older simply being able to be with family at all takes precedence over any tradition, gift, decoration. This is first year after my mom was diagnosed with stage 4 bone cancer, and my grandmother passed away two months later. As we lose or are fighting to keep our family here with us, I want to take as much opportunity as possible to simply see the family, find out whats new, how they are changing etc (nephews) and how they have grown.

  95. Relaxing while the cousins play, laughing, and playing games together.

  98. Now that my sister and I are older, I really miss the time we used to just "hang out" as a family. We spend a few days of truly uninterrupted family time at my parents' house for the holidays each year. It's fun to just really enjoy each others company and catch up on what's going on in everyone's lives.

  106. What I like best is that we get more done time to just enjoy each other and not be stressed by having to do school while we are together. Instead we live in the moment and enjoy things that we do not do all year long. Special drives to see the evening lights, extra holiday cooking and baking, enjoy slowing down and sitting together in the family room with only the Christmas tree lights on and enjoy talking to each other. What a blessing this time of the year is.

  120. I love spending Christmas Eve with my fathers side of the family. We have been having the same meal since I was born and we all look forward to it all year long. This year is going to be especially important for us because my Grandmother, who used to do all of the cooking, has had several strokes this past year and is now living in a nursing home and paralyzed on her right side. But she will be able to come and join all of us and we are going to savor this moment with her and be thankful she is still her to spend this special time with all of us.

  136. Now that I'm older I love watching all my great nieces(6)and nephew's (2)playing together during the holidays. Because everyone's lives are so busy they only get to see each other when we gather at my mom's house for the holidays. It's fun to watch as they come together like it was just yesterday and start playing again. Even though we only see each other a few times a year our family is very close. To us, family is what the holidays should be about.

  151. Being able to enjoy my family that's altogether in one place, and at one time (which rarely happens)...is great even if we sit there and do nothing!

  152. This is one of the few times a year that we get to visit my fiance's family. It is so great to be able to spend a week with them celebrating the holiday and catching up!

  154. I enjoy seeing my kids happy as they interact with their grandparents, aunts & uncles. Also, enjoying good food together.

  156. What I like best about spending time with siblings and families during the holidays is I never see them the rest of the year!
