Shopping List

  • 12x12 frame
  • 12x12 metal sheet
  • 12x12 acrylic calendar
  • 2 12x12 pieces of scrapbooking paper
  • Vinyl numbers made for calendars
  • Small circled magnets
  • Small round mirrored circles
  • Wooden rectangular panel

Instructions

  1. Start by pulling the back off of the frame. Insert the acrylic calendar first followed by the scrapbooking paper and the metal sheet. The metal will hold your magnetic numbers in place.
  2. Using vinyl numbers, take your small round mirrored pieces and rub vinyl on each one up until 31.
  3. Using a glue gun, take magnets and glue to back of the mirrored pieces.
  4. Take the rectangular wooden panel and size it up with a piece of scrapbooking paper. Glue the paper on using a glue gun.
  5. Using stick on letters, spell out the month you wish to design on the wooden panel that's covered with paper. Glue gun magnets to the panel so the month will be displayed.
  6. Add a magnet to the side of the frame for an embellishment.

Constructing your calendar the first time around takes the most work.  Now that it's done, it's easy to update every month.  Just switch out scrapbooking paper along with your embellishments and create a new wooden panel.  So fun!
