Stars

I have promised to paint in my son's room this weekend. He wants the area above his bed ― I'm not sure what it's called, really, but it's set at an angle that follows the pitch of the roof (all of the rooms on the second floor are like this, even the hallway) ― painted black. He wants it to be chalkboard paint (even though most of the ceiling will still be out of reach), and I had the idea to try the "magnetic" primer underneath it. We can attach magnets to the back of glow-in-the-dark plastic stars and decorate the ceiling, rearranging them when they become too familiar, and we want to travel to another part of the galaxy.
