I don’t know about you, but if I wait until the day-of to plan dinner I find myself tearing through the freezer trying to find something – anything – to feed my family, or running to the store to pick up one last item (which always turns into a $25 bill). Since I’ve started planning my meals every weekend – in part because of this cute menu board – I’ve been making healthier meals and fewer trips to the store, and in turn, spending less money. Here’s how you can make yours:
What you’ll need
- Picture frame
- Scrapbook paper
- Letter stickers
- Dry erase markers {fine tip}
- Quote stickers {optional}
- Ribbon (optional}
Directions
- Choose your favorite scrapbook paper for the background of your menu board. Trim paper to fit inside the frame you’ve chosen {if needed}. Arrange letter-stickers to form “Menu” and the names for each day of the week and attach to your paper. Leave space to the right to write out your weekly menu {or get creative and leave space to the left, below, wherever you’d like!}. If you have a sticker with a fun quote, attach it now.
- Put paper in frame behind glass. Use dry erase markers on the glass to write out your weekly menu. Erase with paper towels or tissues.
- {Optional} Attach coordinating ribbon to the back of your frame to hang the menu board.
