For the KIDDOS Hop--Altered Clip Board


Hi Everyone!

Welcome to the Kiddo's Hop Hosted by Laura at Makin Pretty Things!! Thank you Laura for sponsoring two AMAZING hops...I am still not 100%, after spending an Entire WEEK sick... but I had to make a little project to contribute.

You have probably just came from the sooo crafty Corri's blog. I bet you just loved her project.. if you are lost here is the lineup:

Laura
Bonnie
Mel
Nicolette
Jenn
Madison
Jessica
Anita
Corri
Tammy(ME)
Stacey
Linda
Haidee
Martha
Sigrid
Minta
Jennifer A.
Alina
Lauren

So for today's project I altered a little clipboard, matching pen and memo pad. I plan on making one of these for each of my children so that they can have their own personal " TO DO" lists.. Once my magnetic board is finished I will put both of them on the hook. I find I get so much more done if the list is there to hold me accountable. I just used modge podge to glue the paper down. Twine to hold the pen and Plantin School Book for the letters. The letters are not centered so well but I am a bit fussy these days. In this case I will be the one filling out Hannah's list so it will help me too.

Now for some blog candy... I will be giving away a Scrappy Mom's Kid's Inc set to one lucky winner. All you have to do is leave me a comment and you will be entered to win. Please leave me a way in which I can get in touch with you as well. Now Laura will also be having a giveaway over at her BLOG so make sure to go through the lineup and leave a comment on EVERY ONE'S projects and she will be picking one of you lucky winners....

Now don't forget to pick up with the ever talented Stacey!

Thank you all for joining us and have a wonderful week... see you back again later in the week.

    Great idea. Maybe if I make something like this for my kids and their things to do, they would actually do the things on the list ... LOL :)

    I love this idea, Tammy! I need something to light a fire under my girls to clean up, so maybe making clipboards with lists for them would be helpful. Thanks for sharing this even though you are under the weather! Hope you are 100% soon! :) ~Jen http://happyplaceforjen.blogspot.com/
