Hey there! Sorry for not updating, I've been really busy! I don't have a recipe today, but I have a really cool craft to show you! Nathan and I made this earlier today and it was really simple and relatively inexpensive!
This is a super awesome PICTURE FRAME MENU BOARD :)
I used a 10x20 inch frame, half a yard of fabric, a couple spools of ribbon, a bit of tacky glue, and some chip board stickers!
We could have spray painted the wooden part of the frame a different color but we liked the blue and black! Anyway, I wish I had taken step by step pictures, but it's pretty simple! We covered the back of the frame (behind the glass, where the picture usually goes) with fabric, and glued six pieces of ribbon onto the fabric to make seven nearly equal sections. I layered a thinner black ribbon on the thicker blue ribbon! It's all your personal preference!
So put the frame back together, and then put chip board stickers right on the glass in the different sections! Now all you need is a dry erase marker and you're good to go! Check out this closeup:
This was super, super easy so check out the thrift stores to try to find a frame you like! This will probably be my go-to housewarming/wedding gift from now on :)
I should probably give credit to my friend Brittany Glenn! We were supposed to make something like this together when I was visiting Washington last month, but I didn't get a chance to hang out with her! Thanks Brittany!
