The writing is on the wall....

Or vase in this case! You can easily create your own by painting a vase with chalkboard paint and doodling to your heart's content.....maybe that's what I should do with spare vases. Also, some florists have been know to paint vases hideous colors, so you can "rough up" the existing paint with fine grade sand paper and paint over with the chalkboard paint (I believe it comes in green or black). Black is more modern and the green gives off a teacher-vibe.
