Everyday Message Center Dry Erase Print

Are you a person that has to see, at a glance, what the week and month ahead holds?  Do you forget important meetings? appointments?  How do you track it all?

I have to be able to see my schedule at a quick glance. Which is exactly why I created my everyday message board back in March.  I have LOVED. LOVED. LOVED it and it truly has made my life easier.

SO... I decided to create something similar to my message board and add it to my shop.

Allow me to introduce my NEWEST Etsy Shop item... 

The Everyday Message Center - Dry Erase - 16 x 20 PRINT:

 and it's available {HERE} in my shop.  

I use my everyday message board literally EVERY DAY! Which is  exactly why I named it the EVERYDAY message board.  ;) This one is mine:

You may remember reading about it here.

This is the one that I recently created and added to my shop:

This PRINT is perfect for keeping track of your weekly and monthly schedule, all while adding delightful decor to your home. Use month by month, for years to come.  This print helps in running an organized home.

Simply attach your family photo's to the print. Change the photo's as often as desired to give a new look (holiday, seasonal photo's, etc.) There are two designated area's for 4 x 6 photo's but you can also add a third photo to the message box, if you'd like or you can add a 4 x 6 piece of colored card-stock paper with your last name on it.

Once you receive the print via mail YOU customize the print to your liking.

Place the print into your favorite 16 x 20 picture frame and write directly on the glass with a dry erase marker. Use over and over as a dry erase board, tracking your weekly and monthly schedule.

Hang in your entry way, office or on a kitchen wall next to the phone. It's even got space for phone messages too.

Featuring a large calendar and a peek inside my week section, which includes space to write  your daily to do's ...

and  space to write what's for dinner each day as well. 

Easy, Delightful ORDER - who doesn't LOVE that?

This is exactly what you will receive in the mail:

A  high resolution 16 x 20 PRINT. Simply add your photo's and place the print into your favorite 16 x 20 glass frame, hang it on the wall and start writing in your schedule. The color of the print is actually more ivory than white.  Remember, monitor colors  vary slightly.  

The print is NOT designed to be written on. It is specifically made to go under glass, to be used as a dry erase board. 

 This print also coordinates nicely with:

 

The child's message center dry-erase print that is also available in my shop.

So, if you are wanting to bring Delightful Order to your everyday life.  Stop by and get your Everyday Message Center Print here and as always, if there is something that you have in mind and you didn't see it in my shop, feel free to send me an email. 

If you have any questions regarding this print or anything else in my shop, email me or comment below, I will answer your questions as best I can.

*This print has been updated with color and more 16 x 20 Everyday Message Center Prints have been added to the shop.* Click on the images below to be directed to the item in the shop.

and there's more.  Stop by MY SHOP to view all available.

Make Your Own Backpack Holder Wall Hooks

I recently shared my Children's Homework Message Center post with you. Under each of my boys message centers I created a place for them to hang their backpacks.  Today, I'm showing you how to create these backpack holders:

 They're real easy to make...

Begin with a wooden block.  I found mine at Craft Warehouse.  You can get these at Joann Fabrics and other places like Lowes, Home Depot, etc.

 I spray painted the wooden blocks with black spray paint.

 and let them dry...

I also found these hooks at Craft Warehouse.  I LOVED them, but decided to paint these guys as well, because I wanted them to "pop" off the black wooden blocks.

So I went into my garage and found me some more Krylon spray paint.  I chose to go with the brilliant silver.  My husband had this stuff stashed away somewhere and he tried selling it at our last garage sale.  I grabbed it up and said 'NO WAY' am I selling this.  It's WAY to good.

Seriously, I LOVE Krylon spray paint!!  I've used it many times over.  In the past, I've tried to go the 'cheap' way and buy less expensive spray paint.  I will NOT make that mistake again!  This stuff is the BEST!! (that's my opinion) and I wasn't even paid to say that. ;)  - I really do LOVE it!

After spray painting the hooks, measure and drill holes into the wood.

(pre-drilling the holes makes it easier to attach to the wall.)

Place the hook on top of the block of wood and screw them into the wall and voila...

... adorable little backpack holders!  

I made four of these guys and hung them underneath the homework message centers:

 and I LOVE it!  A place for everything AND everything in it's place.

Want those prints?  You can get those 16 x 20 Child's Message Center PRINTS HERE in my Etsy Shop and you can always find all the items that I sell by clicking the MY SHOP tab at the top of my blog.

 :) Blessed day to you all.
