Winter Message Board

Create a DIY message board for your family's winter activities with Glue Dots®!

Here's what you need:

• 1" Glue Lines®
• Micro Glue Dots®
• Pop Up Glue Dots®
• 3 coasters
• Craft wood
• Chalkboard paint
• Paintbrush
• Cardstock
• White corrugated cardboard
• Snowflake stickers
• "Notes" sticker
• Black floss
• Corner rounder
• Bind-it-All
• O-wires
• Sticky notepad
• Chalk
• Small pen
• Ribbon

Here's what you do:

1. Apply two coats of chalkboard paint to a piece of craft wood. Let dry in between coats and set aside.
2. Measure coasters, cut cardstock to size and round the corners using a corner rounder.
3. Attach cardstock to coasters by applying 1" Glue Lines around the edge. Make sure to apply the adhesive where they won't get caught in the binding machine.
4. Using the Bind-it-All, punch holes at the top and bottom of each coaster. Bind coasters together with o-wires. Do not fully close the bottom o-wire.
5. Decorate the top coaster with a square piece of corrugated cardboard, add stickers and tie a bow with floss. Use Micro Glue Dots to secure everything in place.
6. Attach the chalkboard to the center coaster using 1" Glue Lines and add a snowflake sticker.
7. Use 1" Glue Lines to attach the sticky notepad to the bottom coaster. Cut a snowflake sticker in half and adhere next to the notepad.
8. Tie floss around a piece of chalk and a pen to hang from the bottom o-wire.
9. Tie ribbon to the top o-wire and tie a bow to hang on the wall.

That's it!
