I must say I had an interesting day yesterday. I hate to admit it but I was more tired and frustrated than I wanted to own up to and I ended up suffering the consequences. Today, however, is a brand new day and, although I'm off to a late start, I feel great.
The project Iwanted to post for you (finally!) is one that I made for the wall in my kitchen next to the telephone. I love the colors and they really do blend in well in my kitchen, but I think I could have used a more subtle color paper for the words "Take Note". I may have went overboard with the paper there. Overall, I like how it came out and I will use it to jot grocery items I may need, telephone numbers, notes, etc. And, if I need to remember a certain event date, I added a little calendar for myself. You can too!
How I constructed it:
The carts I used are George (pad/pen holders), Storybook (embellishment), and Plantin (words, "Take Note"). I used chipboard to cut the back and embellishment because they need to be sturdy. I glued across the top of the notepad itself with a hot glue gun to hold the pages together on the notepad and calendar. I used velcro on the calendar so it can be replaced yearly, and the notepad can be removed from under the flap so that it can be easily used and/or replaced.
Of course, I'll be hanging it; but, you can also attach a magnet and use on the fridge or let it stand -- your choice!
Here's a picture with the notepad removed:
I hope you like it!
I'll be seeing you!
