Picture Frame Memo Board

The Menu Board was working so well at my house, I decided I needed one to write notes and reminders on.

So, I found me a cute picture frame (8"x10"). (Paint it if you need to.) And also a cute piece of scrapbook paper.
See that red tag on the picture frame? Red Tag = clearance; clearance = cheap; cheap = Courtney's happiness. Woohoo!

Anyway, I usually use the paper that comes with the frame to trace onto my scrapbook paper so I know what size to make it. Then cut out the paper.

Clean the picture frame glass and put the paper into the frame. Write a little note with dry-erase marker, and you are good to go.

This one I used at the baby shower, thus the note, but we also use it at home. That's the great thing about these- they are reusable. Mother Nature is smiling!

Here is one that I made for my cousin and her husband for their anniversary.


I also like to put a little sticky velcro onto the dry-erase pen and the back of the frame, then the pen is easy to locate when you need to make a quick note. I might need to make one of these for my classroom now too. :o)

I will be linking to these parties this week.

  7. What a cute idea! Great way to repurpose old frames, esp. if you paint them first. Visiting from Tools are for Women Too.

  10. What a cute idea! I love the fact that you can customize it to your room decor.

    I'm already thinking of ways to use this! And it would be a great gift idea!

    Thinking of a way you could attach the marker and maybe a cloth to wipe it clean....
    Thanks so much for sharing!

  13. I've had this idea in mind for awhile but I never did it. But I've always thought to use a plain color. Love the idea of an image in a corner!!

  16. I'm amazed, I have to admit. Seldom do I come across a blog that's equally educative and interesting, and without a doubt, you have
    hit the nail on the head. The issue is something that not enough men and women are
    speaking intelligently about. Now i'm very happy that I came across this in my hunt for something relating to this.

  18. Greetings! I know this is kind of off topic but
    I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site?
    I'm getting fed up of Wordpress because I've had issues with hackers and I'm looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

  20. I comment when I especially enjoy a post on
    a website or if I have something to add to the conversation.
    Usually it's a result of the sincerness communicated in the post I browsed. And after this article "Picture Frame Memo Board". I was actually moved enough to post a thought ;-) I actually do have some questions for you if it's allright.

    Could it be simply me or does it appear like some of the responses look like coming from brain dead people?

    :-P And, if you are posting at additional sites, I
    would like to follow everything new you have to post. Would you make a
    list every one of all your public sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
