Easy and cheap Multi task message board and inexpensive command station to schedule and maintain an organized weekly home system. A board on which messages are posted and communication is done such that everyone is on the same page. This ensures all the family members are efficiently functioning as a team. Today thanks to online apps this process has been drastically streamlined as we can share our calendars and stay on top of things.
However, if you enjoy the old school practice, printing schedules and using your stationery to mark and plan you will love this multitask message board. I made this command board to keep track of everything. Whether it is something important per week that needs to be done. Important bills and receipts. Plans that come to my mind regarding crafts and blog.
DIY Multi task message board
I bought this bulletin board which came with a rope and hooks (for $3). For a 18″x24″ board I think it’s a really good price.
Next I used some decorative paper to make it pretty.
I ended up using gift wrapping paper. You can also use fabric to cover the board with thumb tacks. Cut the paper to the size of the board. I used double-sided tape to stick paper on board. It helps as it doesn’t ruin the original surface and is changeable. I then used a cuter to remove the excess of paper from the sides for perfection.
Bulletin board
I then measured and cut six rectangles out of decorative paper.
Glued them on the board to use for weekly reminder.
My craft room is where I spend most of my time. Now here’s the cute part. I got this promotional key chain. It has a sticky back which is sticky enough to hold the weight of 5-6 keys.
