Hello Lily Bee Friends. Here, where I live, school has started. Although the tempatures are still hot, it's time to think about going back to school. My daughter is entering Kindergarten, and I know, just like pre-school, she will have lots of work that she brings home to show us and give to us. I want her to also be excited to see her work displayed, so I altered this magnetic board.
I purchased this dry-erase magnetic board at Michael's. It is made by the Board Dudes. And picked up a small pack of six square magnets for uneven surfaces.
I used the 6x6 Destination Tiny Tablet and Mod Podge to cover the front. The board doesn't measure exactly 12x12. I trimmed them down to about 5.5x5.5, then added chalkboard tape around the edges and sides. I also picked up this little frame in the Dollar section at Michael's. Framed a piece of patterned paper, and sketched and cut out the owl with my Silhouette. "Kindergarten" was also sketched and cut out with the Silhouette.
Then I started adding the magnets to the backs of the embellishments.
Because these magnets are meant for uneven surfaces, they give whatever you make a magnet, height, so they are easy to pick up, and don't lie flush against the board. And the magnets would also be great used on your refrigerator to hold even more important school paperwork.
