Welcome to my blog today!!  So glad to have you here.  Well it looks like Spring has shown up in Montana a wee bit early this year, course our weather can change its mind and drop a truckload of snow any day...crossing my fingers for a pleasant spring and not too much rain!

Supplies:
Metal cookie sheet
50s Kitchen kit (Clubscrap)
Mini wooden clothes pins
Modge Podge
Embellishments (bottle caps, buttons, flowers, brads, ribbon)

Instructions:

Cut blue patterned cardstock to fit cookie sheet and adhere using modge podge:
 Add some strips of red patterned paper:
 Add some checkered ribbon (comes in the kit):
 Cover the clothes pin with patterned paper and ink edges with red ink:
 Print out a sheet of your menu options, cut and ink edges.  Adhere red buttons to the clothes pins and add some cardboard letters for the days of the week.  I used the ones you can color with ink and colored them yellow.
Here is the final clothes pins with menu choices:
Create a pocket using envelope maker to hold your future menu choices.  Adhere to cookie sheet.  Print out labels and attach to cookie sheet.  Attach the clothes pins to the cookie sheet, add embellishments as shown:




 Last, using cropodile, punch two holes in top lip of cookie sheet and attach a ribbon for hanging on the wall:

Thanks for stopping by, hope you enjoy my project and find it inspiring!!

  3. What a GREAT idea...this would solve the issue of being asked what's for dinner which I'm sure we all get multiple times during the week (or multiple times daily like my guys)! LOL!! Such fun :)

  5. Debbie, Wonderful use of this kit and a functional item to display! I need one of these so badly, I have the worst time trying to decide what to make for dinner most nights.... I think I know what my next project is, thanks!! Great job!!

  6. OMG I LOVE it!!! I can totally see doing something like this, my only problem is the little pocket would be overflowing as I am constantly trying new recipes and such. I'd also have to be careful that DBF didn't remove the items he doesn't like and hide them so they didn't go back into the rotation ;)
