Happy Friday!

Even though I am a bride to be, I'm also an aunt to be! One of my best friends, Ashley, is have a precious baby girl just monthes before my wedding.  I am loving all the little girl cloths and decorations for her!  I had planned on making an ear-ring holder for sweet baby Kinsley Mae! I live in Arkadelphia and had gone to the only fabric store in town (Wal-Mart) come to find out they don't carry mesh wiring.  I had already picked out cute fabric and buttons, I just coudn't put them back on the shelves. duh =)  My projected ended up being a magnetic board with some style! 

First I bought a cheap frame, magnetic sheets 5x7, magnetic dots, fabric to cover the frame, and buttons for magnets!

 I laid the fabric out and marked an half inch wider and longer than the frame so I had material to glue to the back.  Make sure to do the corners first pulled tightly so the fabric lays smooth.  I used hot glue to complete this project!

After the fabric was all glued and dried I hot glued the big magnetic sheet to the front of the fabric then the fun part started! I used the little magnetic dots on the back of buttons to make cute magnets! I made a small bow our of ribbon to glue to the corner of the magnetic sheet. OH LA LA!

  Here is the finished project! I'm planning on putting her doctor appts on the board as a reminder, snapshots of her, or a stick a daily pick me up typed and cut out to the board!

Let me know what you think of my VERY first craft! Hopefully...I'll create another project this weekend with less flaws! Have a safe weekend, tell your love ones how much you appreciate them.  Thankfully my sweet fiance didn't mind the mess I made cutting the fabric and using the hot glue gun. =) Off to cook him some dinner.
