A couple of weeks ago I made this memo board to help keep track of all the goings on in our family.
In our old house I just taped a calendar to the side of our fridge and I would paper clip things to it. Well, here I can't do that. Our fridge is sandwiched between cabinets and plus it always looked really messy.
This baby hangs in our mudroom.
I bought this cork board from the thrift store for 99 cents. It is a big one, 24" x 36". I painted the frame and distressed it a little. Covered it with some fabric I already had by using staples and then I glued on some ribbon.
Of course, since my cricut is finally out of storage I just had to use it.
I found a little white board calendar at Staples and then I also printed out calendars for the next 6 months. That way when appointments or practices are scheduled during the coming months I can keep track of them.
Once school, football and hockey start I foresee this guy getting lots of use. This is where I plan to hand field trip notices, supply lists, etc.
I am hoping this helps us to run like a well oiled machine. Or at least one that isn't in a dire need of an lube job.

so glad you for your sweet comment, and i am dying to know what you did with your pumpkin jar! i don't know what to do with it, i felt it was like an apothecary jar in that it's glass and clear, and i thought maybe i could group it with them? who knows! lol!
