Magnet Boards

I saw something similar on Etsy and I thought they were super cute, and seemed easy to make, so I set out to make them. They are very simple to make. All you need is some thin sheet metal, material, a glue gun, and any accessories you may wish to put on them. Cut the fabric a little bigger than the sheet metal. Then glue the fabric to the back side of the metal. When you are done, cut strips of fabric, or you can use ribbon, and glue them on the back so the magnet board can hang on the wall. Then add any accessories you may like. If you would like to order a magnet board, go here or email me at speakingvinyl@gmail.com. I also have cute magnets for sale that would look great on the boards!

Wipe Boards






These wipe boards are cute and easy to make. All you need is a picture frame, material, dry erase marker, a glue gun, vinyl, and any decoration you would like to put on it. A great place to get picture frames are at D.I. or Goodwill or the Dollar Store. As long as you like the size, you can always spray paint it the color that you want. I used burlap on a lot of the wipe boards, but you can use any fabric you want. Just glue the fabric to the matte on the picture frame and then put on the vinyl letters. I used a ribbon on some and some hemp string on others to glue the dry erase marker to it so it wouldn't get lost. There are so many things you can do with these. You can make a calendar, dinner menu, to do list, word of the day, or put a cute picture on it for a kids room. If you like any of these and want one, or if you want to make your own and need the vinyl for it, email me at speakingvinyl@gmail.com or visit here.
