I was in Hobby Lobby one day, and decided I was going to make something for my sister and brother in law for their new house (either to give as a housewarming or Christmas gift...yet to be determined). I thought back to pinterest, and had the perfect idea in mind.
Here's my inspiration:
I wanted to do a memo type board that they could use for whatever....not just recipes, or menus, or whatever. So here is what I came up with...
My version:
-8x10 frame- These were much cheaper than the 12x12 scrapbook frames. I got these when they were 50% off. I just picked frames (and paper) that would go with their decor.
-8.5x11 scrapbook paper- I loved that there were so many choices of paper designs. The first one is a damask print and the second looks just like burlap. These were about .25 cents each...if that.
-Pack of stickers from the scrapbook section. About $4.
-2 pack of dry erase markers $1.99
I just put the stickers on the scrapbook paper, inserted the paper into the frame, cut off the extra, and bought a small dry-erase marker for each.
What I love: This was super easy, cheap, and I think they will love it. I love that it is personalized, and that I made it! I also love that you can completely change the look for the holidays or a room re-do simply by changing the paper in it. Easy Peasy!
