Yay I got a project finished, I have oh four or five projects that I am working on right now all waiting to be completed.
Before
This one I have have been planing for a while now but I just could not find the right frame. On Saturday my Mom, Sister, Jaxton an I went shopping. It took a little while and some digging through secondhand stores but I found one.
After
I sanded and painted the frame with left over paint from the island. The cork board I had left over from another project so I measured for a piece of glass to fill the rest of the frame and mounted all of it on two pieces of card board. Behind the glass I glued scrap booking paper the cover the cardboard. Then I cut strips of adhesive vinyl to make the calender grid and used my Cricut machine to cut the letters for the days of the week and the 'menu'. All of the vinyl is adhered to the back of the glass so if I ever want to change the paper pattern it will be a snap.
Now I need to find or make some cute thumbtacks for the cork side and make some kind of system to organize the bills that need paid each week. Currently they are just stuck to the fridge with heavy duty magnets.
