*{Here are 2 “frugal friendly” chalk suggestions that might be helpful.}*
•~1~• If you aren’t concerned with it specifically being *food grade,* I buy my chalk from construction/contractor supply companies!
They use chalk for *snap-line* marking and it’s typically called either *”marking chalk, or line chalk”.*
It comes in a variety of highly pigmented colors, but I’m boring and only ever use white.😆 So I buy a 5lb bottle (oh yeah! they also usually have a VERY handy pour spout cap!)-for about $7-$10.
•~2~• If you want/need to be REALLY frugal….save all of your eggshells.
A really fun activity I frequently do with my nieces/nephews, is making chalk out of eggshells (since eggshells are about 95% calcium carbonate).
Whenever I use eggs, I will wash/dry the shells thoroughly and toss them into a ziplock bag (side note, crunching them in the bag is REALLY satisfying-like popping bubble wrap 🤣), until they come visit.
Ok, I don’t know if this next step is needed, it’s just something I’ve always done to “prep” the eggs the day before making chalk…
I spread the crunched shell bits onto a baking tray and toss them outside into my little solar oven for the day, to ensure they’re dry and sanitized.
Next up, throw the shell bits into a coffee grinder, (i keep one that is designated for crafting only and you can usually get them from thrift stores for a couple bucks)- after turning the shells into as fine of a powder as we can, we sift it into a bowl (if you’re making this for chalk paint, this is the point you’d stop at).
But if you’re wanting to do sidewalk chalk…I’m too lazy to measure anything, but if you’re interested in doing this, I’m sure you can easily find some precise recipes online!💗
As a chalk “binder” we make a paste out of flour and really hot water (I’d say roughly equal amounts of each) to that we add roughly 2X the amount of eggshell powder (2X the amount of flour in the paste)-and some food coloring.
Mix everything completely and then squish it into whatever molds you want (or) simply roll it into the size of chalk sticks you want (because it’s roughly the consistency of play-doh).
Let fully dry- and then go HAVE FUN!
😁❤️
Awesome ideas thank you!!! I will pin your comment to the top if the thread so others can see
@@HotHumblePie Aw thanks ☺️
Holly, I have been making White Chalk Paint using your recipe - Part 1 - with Talc powder. Can talc also be used in the same way as this tutorial? I hope you’re doing well and staying healthy.
That is seriously really really cool‼️ Thanks for sharing!!! 😊
Thank you so much for leaving all those great tips for us ❤️. I'm definitely going to try using the non - food safe chalk you mentioned. Love from Amanda Jones in Melbourne, Australia
❤️🤗 This video was made for the USA and Canadian residents that are unable to find talc. These are the acceptable substitutions that work very well.
I was lucky to find a large container of J & J BP with talc on eBay I snatch that puppy up. I believe Amazon sells it also
Thanks Holly. I am Canadian. Love your videos. So much learning!
I found some in CVS, a few months ago, and, I know, they still have it in mine. It is a big container of talc baby powder, in their Dollar aisle. It is an off brand, but does work just as well. It was only a dollar. I was shocked, because I haven't seen it anywhere else.
I made some chalk paint using talc and white latex paint and used it on some glass candle holders. They came out great, so now
I'd like to paint a cherry wood cafe table set, but I'm kinda waiting to see if anyone else has had success using this recipe. So far, I haven't found any videos or articles using talc.
The calcium carbonate bag you show in the video (brown bag) is available on Amazon, they even sell it in small quantities, when you read down further in the description it gives a recipe for chalk paint, lol
Holly, I really love how much I learn from watching your videos! You are an excellent teacher and provide great information for us. Thanks so much for taking the time (and the effort) to do things like this. I hope you have a fantastic and blissful week!
Holly, I've watched a lot of DIY chalk paint videos on UA-cam, and I have to say, yours is the BEST. The quality of your filming, the clear explanation, the way you mixed each one in separate cups for us to see, and then demonstrating each one on the black background, made it all amazingly clear. It made it easy to see for ourselves which one was the best and why. Thank you for taking all the time and effort to do this.
Thank you!
Well I'm super impressed as I live in Canada and a small can of chalk paint is $45!!! I just cannot afford to spend that kind of money so right now I'm doing the biggest happy dance. Lol As I sit and watch everyone using chalk paint I grow green with envy and silently cuss the fact that it costs such an outrageous price. This video just gave me a new lease on crafting life, so with that said, I'm extemely grateful and sending big hugs your way. Thank you so very much ❤❤❤🇨🇦
I thought you can use acrylic paint, the latex paint is expensive
I love that you have given us this fantastic alternative to the expensive brand name chalk paints. Thank you so much!
Holly I always look forward to your videos.Thank you for updating the diy chalk paint. 🇨🇦
You are such a good scientist. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Love your tenacity for recommendations. Girl you are a dedicated CRAFT artist.
Hi Holly, I wanted to give you my current chalk paint recipe. I’ve tried baking soda, corn starch, baby powder, etc and I just didn’t get the smoothness and opaqueness I was looking for. So, I’ve been taking clays for years to help cleanse my immune system and purge any heavy metals that may have accumulated over time and I got to thinking one day that maybe I should try incorporating some of these not-so-commonly heard of clays into my paints. I found that Bentonite Clay is the absolute best to create the perfect chalk paint. Other options are Diatomaceous Earth and Zeolite (finely ground), both food grade, as always, and with zeolite you’ll find that it gives your paint an earthy tone that regular paint can’t deliver. The last time I made a perfect batch I noted it immediately so I wouldn’t forget! My radio of paint to bentonite clay is about 60/40, but more or less can be added based on your ideal opaqueness. The paint I last used was a basic Rustoleum house paint (aged gray) with a smooth pebble finish, and while I did had a little bit of acrylic paint to get the color I wanted, I rely mostly on acrylic ink to get my final shade. That way I’m not always fighting the clay to paint ratio and I still choose to use my inks to get my desired color. I used this method yesterday and I am so pleased with the results of my vase and I wish you could see it! Bentonite is also called Aztec Healing clay and you can find it pretty easily on Amazon, but I recently also found it at TJ Maxx as well. I was really surprised and I picked some up while I was there. I hope this suggestion serves you in some way or at least brings about new ideas. Thanks 😊
Thank you! Be careful not to breathe in the Diatomaceous Earth as I'm sure you already know! I have used clay before too, but glad to hear about Bentonite.
I used to use bentonite clay aka Aztec beauty clay for my facials (mixed with white vinegar) years ago. Never would’ve thought to try it for Chalk Paint. I actually have some Zeolite n might try it. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing this Holly! This is awesome! I do love your original recipe too! I don’t always make it but I always keep the supplies on hand, just in case! 😊💕🌸
After watching your first video, I tried mixing a moss green with chalk from a royal blue chalk line. It was gorgeous and covered a soccer ball completely in one coat!
Hi Holly, love your Chanel. Its taken my crafting and patience to a new level. I just bought the Pure CC from Amazon. They have it back in stock. I just wanted everyone to know! Thanks for everything!!
Yay, a new video! Good morning Holly 🤗
Hi Holly thank you so very much! Have a lovely week! 💗💗💗
Thank Holly! Been waiting to see this done 😊
I’m so happy 😀
Thanks Holly. Love your chalk paint ideas. Have a great week.
So great that you take the time to share these tips with us. It is so much appreciated ☺ 💓
Loved this video! I watched the first one you did, as well. I haven't tried either one yet. However, I feel educated enough to do it myself eventually. Thank you! 💜 You are amazing!
Thank you for explaining this so well
Mrs. Holly this is amazing. I learn so much from you. Thank you for all that you do. Thank you for sharing your talents and knowledge. 🖖🏽🌈💕
Thank you for sharing this. Have a blessed Sunday.
Awesome Teacher! Love the visuals and your calming voice, ty.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great tutorial on making quality Chalk paint. CC clearly makes the grade! Thank you so much! 🌞Fl
Thank you for doing the experimentation for us. I have done my fair share of furniture painting over the years and have learned so much from watching videos like yours. Good for DIYs too. 🌸❤️🌸
Thank you 😊
Thank you for all your research and demos I benefit so much from all your work.
I’m glad you did a update. I agree. The left side.
Thank you for such a well explained tutorial!
Thanks Holly I love the CC better than any since you can’t find the talc hardly anymore. Plus I can make any color I want! Thanks for sharing have a Happy Week.
Yessssss I've been waiting for this ❤❤ Thank youuuuu
Yay! Happy crafting sweetie ❤️🤗🦋🌸🌸😘
I agree Holly the cc/ is pretty I'm gonna try this too
Thank you
Thank you for taking the time to test these out. I'm going with the CC too. Turned out 👍 great. Great tutorial. 💯👍❤️😊
I love, love, love your videos. Saw the first one on chalk paint. Very informative and appreciate the demos. Thanks so much.
Just got my C.C. and can’t wait to make some! Thanks Holly!
You are my absolute favorite creator!!! Thanks for sharing your brain with us!
Thank you 😊
Awesome, will definitely be trying this. Thank you for sharing
A thousand thank yous for this tutorial!!!! I love your videos, Holly!
So glad!
I’m going to try this! It will save me money. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you. I'm trying this ASAP.💕
Very informative. Tyvm for all of your valuable teachings
I absolutely love your paint Pen holder ! 💕💕 I will definitely like the paint made with the C.C 💕💕 thank you for sharing! 💕💕
I tried Holly's recipe for chalk paint and I must say that I am impressed with the results!!!! I used this recipe for some ornaments that I am making and it goes on smooth and dried flat, no shine. It dried quickly using a hair dryer with no cracking!!! My ornaments are a shiny plastic from DT and I was afraid it wouldn't stick very well. No worries here! It adhered wonderfully and dried hard. I will have to definitely do two coats of paint but that's because I want a more balanced look over all. I used one part talc to two parts paint and I highly recommend it!!! I would upload a video but I couldn't figure out how lol. But if you're on the fence about trying this recipe, let me put your fears to rest. It WORKS!!!! Thank you so much Holly for sharing your knowledge with all of us!!!! I appreciate you so much!!! Hugs from Texas!!!!
Awesome! It’s a great ingredient for faux chalk paint!
Love this. Thanks for sharing.
Great video! I will try it! I love the baby powder recipe! I would love to see a video on how you make your DIY makeup! You are a great teacher! Love your channel😘❤
The left side is so so much better, I love the way it looks on the glass jar. Thanks for the info and video
I totally agree! 😊
Great detailed demonstration Holly!😊🙏
I did a whole set of furniture with homemade chalk paint made with C. C. Over a year ago and sealed with clear wax and its still looking amazing defo recommend this but i still use your receipe with talc and luv it... Thanku holly godbless xx
Awesome! This video was made for the many USA and Canadian residents that are unable to find talc. These are the acceptable substitutions that work very well. Unfortunately, since the cancer lawsuits, the price for baby powder talc has gone through the roof. I don’t know why they didn’t just put a disclaimer on the bottles to tell people not to use it on their private parts! If we got rid of everything that was carcinogenic people won’t be allowed to use sandpaper anymore because sawdust causes cancer! Frustrating! 🤪 While talc BP is available in the rest of the world, (and so my video will stay up to help those people) USA in Canadian residents needed more suggestions. Calcium carbonate per ounce now costs the same as the baby powder bottle I bought in 2005, so still way cheaper than buying Waverly chalk paint! Happy crafting my sweet friend! ❤️
Love this idea..TFS
Holly, your ideas are endless! LOVE all your projects and fantastic innovative ideas! I have used your talcum powder chalk paint and use it all the time, it is the best. Always look forward to your wonderful videos! Thank you for sharing. God's blessings
I am so glad you were able to find talc! This video was made for the many USA and Canadian residents that are unable to find it. These are the acceptable substitutions that work very well
Good morning Holly ! I always look forward to your videos.
Thank you 😊
Thank you so much this was very useful, I am going to go see your first video! I am totally interested in making my own paint 😀
Thank you Holly 💕
Thank you for the great tips
Thanks Holly for doing the research and demo for us. I had trouble finding real talc so it will be great to use the CC.

That is really interesting!! Thanks for sharing this with us!! 😁👍
Great tutorial. Thank you.
Thank you for these videos! They are great! I was a potter for years and we made our own glazes. We used Calcium Carbonate in the glaze. It makes sense to use it this way as it can cause a matt effect. I'm new to crafting and am busy trying to learn. I am certainly going to try this recipe (or the talc recipe). I thought it looked great on the glass even with just one coat! I have not yet used any chalk paint so it will be interesting to make my own. TY!
Good morning Holly...I have searched high and low for baby powder with talc. I was almost out of my chalk paint.. I was so happy with your1st video. The paint smelled so good! Thanks so much for your determination in finding a solution to the talc shortage. You are my hero!
Thank you! If it’s any consolation, the calcium carbonate per ounce now comes in at the same price of the cheap baby powder with talc that I bought many years ago, and it certainly comes in a close second to talc’s performance. ❤️👍🏼🤗
Hi Holly! Finally getting to start my Sunday morning in the right way! Woo hoo! ( :
This was sooo fascinating! The calcium carbonate with acrylic paint is amazing! ( : I love this easy breezy way to make My acrylic pin into a chalk paint! Brilliant! ( ;
Thank you sooo much! ( : The paint pen jar is sooo cute at the end too! ( : You are soooo great! I am soooo excited to get some cheap chalk paint now! Yayyyyyyy!! You rock! ( :
Awesome ideas! OMG! Thank you!!!
What a cool video! Thanks for doing the comparison. I not only found it interesting, but super helpful! Thanks friend! 🥰🤗
Thanks for the chalk paint instructions. I will try it soon.
Yay 😀
Good to know, Holly. Thank you!😊💛
I love your process to determine the best additive to make chalk paint! I’m excited to try it!!!
Thank you 😊
Love your crafts🎉
Hi Holly! Thank you for the great video and your chalk paint is pretty amazing! Thanks for the proportions of the ingredients for mixing the chalk paint . This is very helpful information & I really appreciate it. TFS
Happy Creating! Samantha
Hey, Lady! Thank you for such a great video. 35 years ago, as a professional make-up artist, I learned about making pancake make-up. Take a look at the ingredients that Westmore used to make the first pancake make-up. They needed something that would not melt under the hot studio lights. In checking his formula, it amazed me that he just took a paint formula and made it into the make-up of the Golden Hollywood era. His product created the velvet complexions on screen. So, chalk paint also does that, cause it is the same ingredients. So, the comment of "painting your face" actually fit what he was doing. He used a solid pigment that he dispersed into a liquid medium and added his talc, too. He would apply the foundation to the starlet, let it dry, and buff it. The buffing took away anything that would appear scratchy on film. Their complexions had to be perfectly smooth, like when gesso is put on a canvas. I think you can see where I am going here. So, sanding your chalk paint is the same as when Westmore would "buff" his clients foundation. It was activated with water and would dry on the actresses, not like a mud mask, but they felt it's tightening power. So many of the actresses would swipe the foundation from him for their own use. It led him to start producing it in larger quantities and the rest is history. I will use the calcium carbonate to make my paint. I have some awfully beautiful mineral pigments that I want to turn into paint. I'll "buff" with the lightest sandpaper, mimicking what Westmore did to complexions and make my paint so smooth. This is fun. Thank you for posting your experiments.
Very interesting!!
Enjoyed your informative video! Thank you !
I agree the CC was the best look 😊
I was thinking didn't I see this video once before when I learn to make chalk paint LOL I see you're updating it yay.
I bought a big jar of Apple Barrel White matte paint and I couldn't help but notice when it dries it's kind of similar to chalk paint. It's very thick and it has that chalky finish at least for me.
So many of the acrylic paints are now competing with the chalk paint companies. CraftSmart paint in particular, looks exactly like chalk paint when it dries. Most of the ultra matte latex pants look like chalk paint now too. Again, I think it has a lot to do with the name. It’s a cool name. 😎People want to buy it and say it, lol. Have a great week my sweet friend!
So happy to have found you. I made chalk paint using plaster of Paris and it turned solid rock with in a day. So that got binned. Wasted a cup of quality coloured paint. I’m off to try the talc ( coz I have some locked away) and then find some calcium carbonate . Great tutorial
Thank you 😊
👍👍 That was a DIY for DIYers. I love the test challenge. Great video⚘
East Tennessee
Thanks Holly.
Primer and just paint makes it so make adding some of the baby powder from video 1 would make perfect sense. Thank you for the idea . A quart goes along way !!!!
I like the CC too. I’ve also seen people use baking soda as well and it turns out beautiful!
Watch her first chalk paint video! Baking soda creates gritty texture only!
@@mindymiller3270 thank you! I did afterwards and you’re right. I think the CC is the way to go! Thanks again!
I live in the USA where it's super hard to find talc so thank you! This vid is awesome! ,👍😘
I got my talc on Amazon! But if I’m mixing a big batch I use the carbonate!
Love all of your videos!!
Man this is awesome!! I ALWAYS keep TUMS around!!
Yay 😁
I liked the looks the baby powder gave and is so easy to find at dt or any store.
Not where I live unfortunately. People in the USA are having trouble because Johnson and Johnson and all of the baby powder companies are slowly going to remove talc or have done so already. I’m so glad you can still find it! ❤️
Thank you so much for the tip for the Calcium Carbonate. Blending it with a bit of water sounds like the perfect way to go. That blew me away when you put the blow dryer on them. BTW, I love mixing my own things like this. ❤️ The CC, HAS MY VOTE AS WELL.
Thank you 😊
Great Video! 👍
That was so interesting, Holly.
C.C., definitely... 🤍🌞👏
Hi Holly, thank you for the video. I've been making my own chalk paint for about a year now and using calcium carbonate and you need barely get it wet like when you are mixing corn starch to make gravy, then mix that in with the paint. That way your paint doesn't get watered down and you have a nice creamy bright color that gives you good coverage. It took lots of trial and error to figure it out lol 😂. Love your tutorials. Thank you so much.
Thank you! 😊 I will keep that in mind!
Like I said before you're my favourite crafter thank you so much for sharing this I love the CC as well you have so much talent and it really helped us all in making our own chalk paint and what is fast and what is not thank you so much for sharing love your show I have learnt so much from your experiments you're a great teacher thank you so much for sharing have a great weekend God bless dear friend
Thank you 😊
Thank you for these comparisons. I like the opacity of the paint with calcium carbonate.
Thank you for the info! ❤️ from Minnesota
Very informative! I'm going to try the calcium carbonate method. Thank you for sharing, Holly! ❤
I’m surprise, I was very surprise you didn’t try CHALK. Thanks for this video.
Be sure to watch part 2! Lol
Wow!! That’s so interesting!! I want try!!✌🏻
Hiya sweet AJ 😊
Thank you for this informative video! It’s entertaining to watch through the entire video, in my opinion, because your voice is welcoming and soothing! 🙏 God bless you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks. Great Video.
Thank you 😊
You are a great teacher. Thank you so much for this very helpful tutorial.. I have used baking soda. I wonder how it stacks up to your recipes.. Holly knows best!!! Have a great week my friend.💛
Check out my first chalk paint video which explains baking soda versus other methods, including visuals. There is a link to that video in my description box and at the end of this video
You can also get calcium carbonate at a pool supply store. Or if don't want to do that or get you some baking soda and put it on a baking sheet then put it in the oven at 400 degrees for an hour. That will make the baking soda into calcium carbonate. I learned this while researching for soda ash for my tie dyeing. Love your videos and projects.
Oh wow! Have you tried the baking soda oven trick final product in paint? I would love to know how it looks when it dries. Thanks for sharing! xox
Per cooksillustrated dot com, the cooked baking soda gives you SODIUM carbonate, aka washing soda. "Just empty a box of baking soda into a 13 by 9-inch glass baking dish and bake it in a 300-degree oven for 90 minutes, stirring halfway through baking. The baking soda will release water and carbon dioxide, leaving pure sodium carbonate..."
the talc one works really good . i bought it on amazon
thanks!
We love you bunches too, Holly! I got first comment today! Love how you explain how and why things work best! Always on a budget! You could teach us volumes on makeup I'm sure! TY, Holly! ALWAYS love you!!👍🥰🖌🎨
That might be a good idea, for a second channel.
Aww, thank you Jackie! Much love to you my friend! ❤️
Jackie, I totally agree.
Hey Holly. I have always used calcium carbonate to make diy chalk paint and never had any issues with it. You absolutely do need to mix some water with it though. Enjoy your videos as always. Thank you!
Not a con issuer of any paint or crafts; I am a newbie. Been spending my time stocking and searching to do some gifting for Christmas. Best get my move on, eh?!!😂 Just love your ideas Holly. Thank you for your ideas! They truly inspire me.😊❤
In my opinion, the rice powder did the best BECAUSE the color didn’t change like it did with the other two. The calcium and Kaolin lightened the color.
Good point and definitely another option!
Ur talc paint is all I use for chalk paint. I love how u do the test right n front of us so there is proof to c.. Holly u r so stinkin smart not only n making paint the the Diys u come up with and how u can use so many things around ur home and recycle them. I love watching u my friend. Ur the best and my #1 go to girl for crafting. God Bless u and have a wonderful week

I’ve been using CC for about a year now and it seems to work the best. I also bought tire talc and it seems to work good but the CC is the best.
