So I am writing this from my bed. I am currently not feeling very well but I'm trying to keep to my schedule so this is my attempt. So tonight, I am bringing you a Menu Board DIY. This is something that has really helped Jesse and I stay organized when grocery shopping and for planning meals. It's really easy and doesn't take a lot of time. It is actually not too expensive, even less so if you have all the items you need already. Let's get into it!
Things You Need:
-scissors
-dry erase board
-washi tape
-chalkboard labels
-chalkboard marker
-alphabet stickers
Step 1:
Take your dry erase board and your washi tape and start deciding where you want to put everything. I had a 8 spots for the days of the week (A place to write 'What's for Dinner?' and then a space for each Day of the Week). On the right side, I had a Notes Section and a Grocery List space.
Step 2:
Cut strips of washi tape and place them on the dry erase board. The good thing about using washi tape is that it is easy to remove and re-place. You can move it multiple times and it will stick. Place washi tape until you have completed the template for your menu board.
Step 3:
Next, take your chalkboard labels and label the different areas (ie. Notes, Grocery List, Days of the Week). I also used some chalkboard labels to decorate the Days of the Week.
Step 4:
Next take your chalkboard marker and write in what each section is. You can use the chalkboard marker to mark each day of the week or you can use some alphabet stickers like I did. I used black alphabet stickers so they don't show up in the pictures, but you can use whatever. Make it your own!
And that's it! Your very own menu board! Like I said it can be pretty cheap if you already have the stuff. If not, be careful about spending too much. You don't want it to become an expensive project! I hope that you enjoyed this project tutorial! Be sure to leave me comments, pictures or links to your posts if you decide to tackle this project! I'd love to see what you all come up with. Until next time, Happy Crafting! xoxo
