Solution: Family menu board. Everyone gives input and we create our meal plan for the week.
Problem: white dry-erase board located on kitchen organizer sucks.
Solution: paint with Rustoleum chalkboard paint.
Once I painted over my dry erase board I could start designing our new menu board. I was a little pressed for time today so I purchased 2 shapes from the Silhouette online store downloads to speed up the design process.
I manipulated the calendar design in Silhouette Studio- deleted some of the boxes, made it longer and so on. I dropped the days of the week in and cut the design out on white premium vinyl.
After I weeded the vinyl, I used the Silhouette transfer tape, eyeballed the placement and stuck it on the chalkboard. Then I found some sidewalk chalk that Lilly left behind in our front yard (no joke) and wrote in our menu for the week. I plan on getting some of those fancy chalk pens, but for the time being, sidewalk chalk will do...
I intentionally didn't put "menu" or anything like that on my design in case I get lazy and stop writing our meal plans here. I can at least use it for special reminders or something else by leaving it kinda generic.
