What is a Chalk Shirt?
Whether you have a literary bent or an artistic flare, a Chalk Shirt is your avenue of expression. You can "Express Yourself" with a chalk shirt. It is the perfect way for you to say what you have always wanted to say. ChalkShirtsTM has made a shirt that you can write on with regular chalk and erase with a dry EraserPocketTM. That means that you can write, erase and write again without having to wash your shirt or use a wet rag. Our Chalk Shirt and EraserPocketTM allow you to wear your thoughts or art wherever and whenever you want.
Chalk Shirts are perfect for events, parties and especially for self-expression. They make perfect gifts for anybody and especially for those who are hard to buy for. It is original, novel and intriguing. Imagine the fun. Imagine the possibilities that a walking billboard might afford you or somebody you know.
The ChalkShirtsTM Chalk Shirt is different from any others that you might encounter. ChalkShirtsTM chalkboard is larger than any other, and that affords more room for expression. Also the ChalkShirtsTM chalkboard can be erased with our dry EraserPocketTM whereas, other chalkboard shirts require that you carry around a wet rag to erase the chalkboard. Another wonderful thing about a ChalkShirtsTM Chalk Shirt is that it is affordable. For a low price you get a Chalk Shirt, EraserPocket and Chalk, all that you need for ultimate expression.
Since we use regular chalk, if you need replacement chalk you can get it anywhere. Just go to you local office supply store and get a box of chalk for less than $2. Be sure to get soft chalk. I have found that PRANG chalk works the best.
Thank you for taking the time to stop by and investigate. Please come back often and please stop by our facebook page.

Welcome, Oregon Youth Convention!
We hope that you have a tremendous weekend attending the Convention. Thank you for letting ChalkShirtsTM be a part of your event. We hope you enjoyed the sample shirts. Imagine how fun a room of full-size chalk shirts could be!
What Matters To You?
I have found my chalk shirt to be very useful in meeting new people. It is a very unassuming way to introduce yourself and to begin a conversation with people you don't know.
The versatility of our Chalk Shirt is wonderful. Our special chalkboard allows you to use our EraserPocketTM to erase without the need of a wet rag. If you want a message to stay all day, you can use a Chalk-InkTM Marker. Then to erase, you just need a wet-wipe.
Laundry? Just wash and dry with the rest of your clothes.
Communicate with the world.

"Daily Chalk" - Not Sleeping...
Wake up!!! Not really.
We have all had this experience one way or another. We are talking to somebody who is supposedly paying attention. However, their eyes are closed and they are breathing slowly. Hmm. Don't worry...
They are just thinking. Right?

"Daily Chalk" - It's The Little Things.
A friend sent this to me.
"It's the little things."
Isn't that the truth. You just get up to speed and it seems like all might be working out well...and then something really small totally messes with your life. Whether it is a kiddo who is having a hard night or a flat tire on the way to work: life has its thumb-tacks. I guess it is good for character building, but it sure would be nice to have smooth sailing for a little while.

"Daily Chalk' - Happy Summer!
This winter was long and this summer is short! But Hot! :) I guess it feels the need to make up for lost time. Our family is really enjoying the heat wave. Since we live in North Idaho Summer doesn't usually get here until late June. These last couple of weeks our kiddos have been able to enjoy the 8'(across, not deep) pool and a new slip and slide. We have gone bike riding and a little hiking as well. I hope that you find some time to enjoy yourself this summer. Maybe you could even try to rediscover how to make a real glass of lemonade.(a lost art in our instant society) All that to say, happy summer from ChalkShirts!

"Auntie's Notes" July 2012
After the exciting news that Auntie's wanted to sell our shirts in their store I was wonderfully surprised that by a phone call from Lois Hughes, the events coordinator at Aunties Bookstore. She wanted to interview us for their July Newsletter! It was a fun interview and she was a pleasure to talk with. Even more surprising was the fact that they put us on the front page. Thank you Auntie's.

"Daily Chalk" - ChalkShirts In The Inlander
I know this is a little late but I just came across this yesterday. Apparently last December ChalkShirts was written about in an article on what to buy a "Spoiled Brat" for Christmas. Ha! At least we know that ChalkShirts are good for something. The shirt in this photo was one of our first models. We now have the new "Splattered Paint" chalkboard. It is much more stylish and is now available in our ChalkShirts Store or at Figpickels Toy Emporium on Sherman Ave. in CDA.

"Daily Chalk" - Memorial Day
Memorial Day
It's memorial day. I am so thankful for all of those were willing to sacrifice their lives for our freedom. I had a grandpa who stormed the beaches of Normandy on D-day. Fortunately he was not one of the incredible number of casualties during World War II. There were however, thousands of soldiers who did die in that battle and so many other battles. I am thankful for the sacrifices they made and also the sacrifices their families made. Freedom has not been cheap. Thank you so much.

The "Daily Chalk" - OLD?
Old?
I had a very interesting conversation with two of my sons the other day. They were listening to a tape of me "talking" with my dad back in 1979. (I was a year old.) The date was mentioned at the beginning of the tape, "1979."
Son #1, very surprised, asks, "you were alive back then?"
I answer in the affirmative, "Yes I was,"
Son #1 in shock exclaims, "Wow, you were alive way back in the old days."
Son #2 chimes in with, "that was way back when Jesus was on earth."
Son #1 replies, "no, that was back in Bible times." "Wow dad, you are old!"
Son #2 finishes up in agreement, "yeah!"
-
6 & 8 Year-old's perspective: "I am old."
My perspective: I am still the same person I was when I was 6 or 8. "Old"
is ever changing and always beyond reach. A form of
"Kick-the-Can" I suppose.

:-) I guess it happens to all of us some time or another. :-)
Consider me a member.

Happy Mother's Day - A day late. :-)
Happy Mother's Day to all of you mothers out there. You are a wonderful blessing to all of us. I can truthfully say that none of us would be where we are without you. :-) I hope that you had a good day and that all of your little or big blessings(children) blessed you.
By the way, I did remember to call my mom yesterday.
Have a great week everybody. We are preparing to enjoy the sun that has finally arrived up here in the Northwest. It looks like we may have spring after all.

The "Daily Chalk"
And the answer is, the Rhine River in Germany.
ChalkShirts is traveling the Globe. If you have any pictures of ChalkShirts around anywhere please send them to info@chalkshirts.com. I would love to post them.
Can anybody guess where this picture was taken?
Here is clue #1, "the shoreline in the background is not American."
Clue # 2: It is a river that does not flow directly into the Atlantic ocean or the Pacific ocean.
Clue # 3: What do Yodeling, Sauerkraut, and the Netherlands have in common?
Clue #4: Julias Caesar bridged and crossed this river in 53 and 55 BC.
If you know - post your answer.

The "Daily Chalk"
Ever been in a situation where you had an opinion but nobody asked for it? You were left voiceless.
How about this. I was in Leavenworth listening to a Bavarian band yodel up a storm. They were great! I wasn't able to wait around till they were done to let them know how I felt, so I wrote it to them.
"Yodeling Rocks!" Big smiles and a chuckle from the Base player. Fun was had by all.
Enjoy your day! Go make somebody smile.
