Memo Board Makeover
26th
2010
I’m on a quest to revamp my boring little apartment kitchen. The white walls are incredibly sad and make me want to stab things with my cheap kitchen knives, but since there’s nothing I can do about that I’ve been trying to bring in some color in other ways.
Anyway, I had this magnetic memo board in my craft area/crap pile, but since I usually do my crafting on the floor of my living room anyway, I thought I’d give it a new home in my kitchen.
I don’t personally know the person from the Victorian Era who barfed all over this thing, but if I did I would give her some Pepto and lock her away so she doesn’t spread her disease any further.
I decided on the fabric with the graey leaves (that’s how I’m going to spell it from now on, because frankly, I give up). It was pretty easy to take off the 30,000 miniscule screws on the back of this thing, surprisingly, and the whole project took me about 10 minutes from start to finish.
Much better, right?
Lovely!

Can I just say that I love the squirrel picture (& obviously the board, duh).

Yep, MUCH better. Thus, I totally want it. I like the fabric choice and it looks even better with allow the notes and pictures attached to it.
