I love this board.
Supplies:
Hot glue gun
12x12 scrap book paper- 2 sheets for the background
Extra card stock in your colors
a Crayon box or some sort of thin box. I used my Mabel Labels Box.
7 Clothes Pins
an 11x14 Photo frame.
Strips of magnetic tape
Hot Glue
Command Strips
Regular white Elmer's Glue
I used the board inside the photo frame to mount my scrapbook background too. Then I put it in the frame then I put magnetic strip tape all around the back so it would attach to my frig. I used clothes pins for the days of the week I modpodged ( my homemade recipe 1 part elmers glue to 1 part water). Scrapbook paper to them then used my gold pen to label the days of the week. Then I Hot glued them to the frame and I used command strips to put my meal card box on. Mostly because it was pretty heavy. On to the meal cards. I laminated mine just for extra protection. I also color coded. The Orange-yellow color is for Chicken Dishes, Green is for Beef Dishes, Blue is Meatless Dish (these will come in handy during lent.. Now I just need some recipes), Pink is Crockpot recipe, Brown is Leftover/new recipe (the new recipe after being approved by my panel of men gets its own card) and then Purple is everything else (like eat out night or delivery) . On the Cards the name of the dinner is on the front and on the back is a list of ingredients. That way when I pick out the meals I can then immediately flip it over get a quick look at my ingredients and put them on my shopping list if I don't have them.
