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:
- Apply two coats of chalkboard paint to a piece of craft wood. Let dry in between coats and set aside.
- Measure coasters, cut cardstock to size and round the corners using a corner rounder.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Attach the chalkboard to the center coaster using 1" Glue Lines and add a snowflake sticker.
- 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.
- Tie floss around a piece of chalk and a pen to hang from the bottom o-wire.
- Tie ribbon to the top o-wire and tie a bow to hang on the wall.
That's it!
