Hey, hey there everyone!
Hope your having a great start of the week.
It’s chilly here today:(
I think Spring tricked us!
By now you all know I really enjoy doing different diy crafts in our Kitchen per season.
I always add a touch of whimsy to change things up.
On the frugal, I won’t say cheap, I will say frugal, because that is what I am.
I don’t mind spending on something special, but if I had to spend big on all our decor, let’s just say, the boys would not be going to college.
Sooooo…
I found this plain ole memory board at Marshall’s for under $20.00.
I liked the size of it, and because I change out behind our stove a few times a year this seemed reasonable.
Do you think I could just have a plain ole memo board around?
Absolutely NOT!
I just wanted to stencil something simple.
Pretty generic actually.
If you like scrap booking, you may find this little project fun.
I basically took items I had on hand
and created a fun little recipe, board.
Old recipe books, embellishments, and old tarnished silverware.
Of course my roosters had to gather round too!
this little guy I painted last year in Louis Blue Annie Sloan chalk paint.
I don’t believe I ever even showed you.
The memory board even came with the cutest little bee stick pins
Old recipes
The Burlap sunflower came from Hobby lobby
It sure makes for a cute little conversation piece…on the frugal and on the fun!
Thanks for stopping by today.
Hey not sure if you follow me along on Facebook, but I sure would love to see you over there!
FYI, I did this project a while back. It has already been changed since.

Hi Debbie, Very cute. I hope you had a nice trip. Are you still having your linky parties?
Oh, I just read that the Newbie party is over. I will have to try the Pinterest one. Sounds like fun!
Hey Debbie, I’ve made oodles of memo boards over the years, but I must say yours is my absolute favorite. So clever of you! I also love your photo shoot of your board surrounded by so many cuties. Great job as always. Peggy
Why thank you Miss Peggy, always nice of you to drop by with your sweetness!~
Hi Debbie! The memo board is so cute! Great to have recipes handy to while cooking. Your blog looks so fresh and pretty! I don’t know how your family keeps up with you! You’re amazing and so very busy!
Happy Earth Day! I picked up litter while walking with my grandson and talked about caring for our Earth and planted some seeds today. Love, Linda
Well that is just sweet and wonderful. I talk to my boys all the time about littering…since they were young. I just hate litter. Happy Earth day to you too.
Frugal is GOOD … Memo board is CUTE … good job. Thanks for sharing you talent.
Hugs,
