Dry Erase Calendar

Now that I'm a mom, that means more appointments, so I definitely needed something to keep it all straight. And my dry erase calendar was born. :)

What you'll need:
A picture frame (I used 12x16 because I wanted my days to have plenty of room and I wanted a place for notes as well), Scrapbooking paper, pencil, ruler, permanent marker, magnets and dry erase markers



I started with a 12x12 piece of scrapbooking paper and a ruler and I carefully lined out the boxes with pencil. (make sure you don't put the numbers or the month, JUST the days of the week). Once you have it all mapped out, go over it with permanent marker. Since the frame is 12x16 and the paper is 12x12, you'll have room on the side (if you're using that size frame) to add a side column. I used my side column for the month, notes and I also wrote our names down with dots beside each member of the family, so each person is represented by a color. And since I have a daughter who will probably have multiple favorite colors in the future, I made it where you can change the color of the dot with the dry erase marker. Now all that's left is adding your magnets to the back (if you want it for the fridge).
