One More Fun Idea for IdeaPaint

We've featured ways to use IdeaPaint whiteboard paint in your home before, but we just encountered one more over the weekend:

Game night! We hosted game night at our place over the weekend and played a lively game of Win, Lose, or Draw. While we had an oversized pad of newsprint for drawings, we decided it would be much better to have an entire wall. Wouldn't white board paint on a wall of the living area be perfect for this? And when not in use, it's a white wall instead of black chalkboard.

Would you go this far for game night?

I like the idea... it would be great for working on group projects too (I'm thinking homework night... not game night.)

I would be worried people would think all the walls are okay to write on, specifically children. Maybe if all the other walls were a different color?

Had anyone tried less expensive alternatives, like the one made by rusty-oleum. this is $4 /sq ft. not much savings over a white board

I'm with laurazirbel--group projects and brainstorming sessions.

Looks like a nice place to live in =)
