A Family Memo Board has been on my to-do list for a while. I was so happy (and relieved) when The Mister hung it up the night before school started. Now I don't feel so lost in the sea of paperwork that seems to accompany the beginning of each new school year. If I'm not sure where I have to be, and when, I just have to consult with the handy dandy Memo Board. It knows everything... I think.
the 24x36 board fits nicely on the short wall between my pantry and kitchen
for the record:
112 silver tacks to line the edges (1 tack/inch)
4 burnished gold large square tacks for the corners
72 burnished gold tacks for "memo"
the metal framed corkboard is from costco and cost $14
the fabric is from joanns
Tutorial
There are several Nail Head/Upholstery Tack Memo Board tutorials out there, so instead of creating another one, I'll just link to one-- [HERE].
Close-Up
i used silver tacks around the edges and large burnished gold square tacks to accent the corners
using this nail head typography as inspiration, i spelled out "memo" with burnished gold tacks
now imagine this board, buried under several layers of paper... perfect!
Where did this week go? Have a great Friday!
