Cover the edges of the chalkboard frame with the patriotic washi tape.

Since the chalkboards are new you will need to season them. To season the chalkboard take a piece of white chalk and rub it all over the surface of the chalkboard. Once the surface is completely covered take a damp rag and wipe it off.
