Easy and Fast Project for Organizing our Week

I found this idea via Pinterest.  It's a cheap frame ($10 or $12) from Walmart for eight 4x6 photos.  The original idea used nice scrapbook paper, but I found it a bit too busy.  I looked for more subtle scrapbook paper at WM, but didn't like any of the available choices.  Not wanting to wait until a trip to JoAnn's or Michaels to implement this super idea, I just stuck plain light blue construction paper behind the glass.

You write on the glass with whiteboard markers!  I can erase and change things and now Bear knows exactly what is coming up in her week.  I can color code too.   I make a green star in green for the day we're on.  Blue is for special days (it's not up in the photo, but we have Santa Lucia on Tuesday written in blue).  The red is for reviews I have coming up:)

    This is an excellent idea! I need something for my refrigerator and this would be perfect! Thanks for stopping by my blog - MFW is great - I'm getting ready to post an update after I finish finals!
