Fridge looks a little boring and plain?
Time to make your own pretty whiteboard!
|
Hours of fun drawing or more realistically writing shopping lists!
You need:
So first step is deciding what size you want. The whiteboard paper was really easy to cut so in theory you could make all kinds of shapes.
I decided to edge it with lace but I thought pink would look better with the fridge so I coloured the nylon lace with a Copic marker.
Easy!
Glue the lace to the sticky side of the paper all the way around the edge.
I taped it in the corners for a little extra strength.
I was kind of decorating as I went along so the next thing I did was clean off my fridge and remove all of the stickers. I find it easier to do projects like this when they’re actually on the item. Sometimes you just need to see things from further away to pick up any mistakes!
This is what I had at this point but it looked a little plain.
Diamantes to the rescue! I put a row of large diamantes around the edge of the paper.
Pretty!
Now it’s time to do the matching pens 😀
These are really simple too, just make sure you use actual whiteboard markers not regular ones or else you’ll never be able to wipe them off XD All you need to do is cut some old magnets to be the size and shape of the lid then glue them of. You may need to glue one to the actual pen too depending on how strong the magnets are.
Easy!
I added my Bergamot magnet for another little detail too 😀 You can learn how to make your own Bergamot magnet here.
Taadaa!
Now you just need to draw something on there!
When I made this one I was thinking I would use it for shopping lists and things like that but all I really ended up doing with it was drawing cute things XD
The fridge definitely looks cuter now! I’m still considering adding a heap of flowers to the bottom of it too but I can’t decide on which medium to use!
