The Chalkboard Fridge Project

Since last weekend, Deena and I have been completing and working on the oft talked about, long ago planned, project of the The Chalkboard Fridge (dun dun dun).  We have had a kegerator for a long time and have always wanted to do something more with it than just drink delicious beer served out of the tap.  Mostly things like doodle on it, install a second tap, and keep track of the temperatures and pressures for making sure each pull brings another perfect pour.  In order to solve two of those problems, chalkboard paint.  About $20.00 in primer paint and rollers, and a little elbow grease is all it took.  We primarily followed the guide we found at The Kitchn, and here are the results:
