a project completed.

I've been looking for a magnetic bulletin board, but just haven't found one that fit my lofty expectations. So I decided to make one.


Materials:
  • pre-cut frame that was 50% off (craft store)
  • magnetic metal sheet for $13.99 (hardware store)
  • magnets husby gave me last Christmas
The hardware store cut the metal sheet to fit in my frame (22x28), and the craft store kindly stapled the metal into the frame, and reinforced the backing with some foam board. They also added a wire so I could hang it.

Sweet idea! I've been wanting something like that, but didn't think to add my own classy frame--nice! And ps, I wish you still lived here--we are due for a family shot!

That turned out really cute!! Ironically I've been looking for something similar ... I hate it when I get an idea in my head that is so specific that I can never find anything exactly like what I had in mind.
