I am constantly having to write myself little notes. I seriously have post-it notes everywhere! Can anyone relate? :) This weekend I decided do create a project that would do away with all of my little "reminder" notes. I created a dry erase board for my kitchen. In my kitchen, all of my appliances, floors, and countertops are black. The cabinets are all white, and the walls are a dark tan color. I have decided to make yellow my main accent color. This was a great way to add color and function to my space! It was SOO easy!
Materials used:
Picture frame (14x18)
Chevron fabric I had left over from making pillow covers (you can order it here)
** I have also made these as gifts using scrapbooking paper
This is all you have to do:
Cut your fabric to fit your frame
Iron it really well and place it inside your frame just the way you would a photo.
You can also embellish it with flowers, vinyl, anything that tickles your fancy! :) I decided to leave mine just as it is.
If you will look at the door in this pic, look closely and you will see that the door actually slides into the wall. This leads into the dining room and really is a great way to divide the rooms...

Hi!
ReplyDeleteI love this! I am getting married next April, and think this would be a great idea for the table seating chart! Quick question though- is this simply a dry erase marker that you have used to write over the glass? Does it wipe off clean ok?
Thanks!
Hi Lindsay! I think that is a great idea! I just used a dry erase marker and it wipes off perfectly! You can also use a regular washable marker (like Crayola) and use Windex to clean it right off! :)
