Which background do you prefer?

When I first opened my shop, I had a difficult time finding a wide enough "blank" canvas with enough consistent lighting, so I ended up using the shed doors my husband had painted long ago as a backdrop. Example:

A few months ago, I rearranged my craft room, and realized that the chalkboard paint wall 1) had nothing in front of it except my ironing board, 2) received good light for most of the day, 3) had my children's adorable artwork on it, and 4) fit with the theme of my shop. Example:

Which do you prefer?

Of course, I really don't want to redo 400 or so photos (about 4 photos for every item), but if you guys think it's worth it, I'll do it. Thanks for your thoughts!

I like the chalkboard because the bright colors of the clothes really stand out!! The blue on blue of the shed door doesn't catch my attention as much!

I LOVE the chalkboard background. It's fits in great with the children's clothing and the artwork on it is super cute. I took a look at your shop and the other backgrounds are great too. Im not sure if it's necessary to re-do all photos, but If you want everything cohesive I'd go with the chalkboard. I'm just partial to chalkboards :)

I agree with the above posts, the chalkboard is perfect as a backdrop for your clothes! Great to make the colors pop but also really appropriate for your clothing as well. :)

I ADORE the chalkboard. Chalkboard says school to me, maybe you could pull a theme together with back to school in august or something . . .

That's a great idea, Shawn, and something I hadn't even thought of. Oh, the planning...

Thanks for your thoughts, all!

The chalkboard really frames the colors on the clothes :)
