A grocery list, craft store list, list of things that need added to my wardrobe, a list of future baby name ideas, a list of projects to do. I sometimes make lists that include "making a list" on it. Ok, you get my point.
I thought a fun way to add more lists in my life were with these fun clipboards. A couple quick coats of chalkboard paint and I now I have a new "meal list" and "to do list."
To add the lettering, I used a chalk marker. These things are amazing!! They go on looking like chalk but are super smooth and easy to write with. They also won't wipe off unless you take a wet paper towel to them. I ordered mine on amazon for a previous project. You can get them in a variety of colors.
With my new chalkboards, I already feel more organize. Bring on the lists!

This will be the perfect project to accompany my new-found love of meal planning (perhaps it will keep me motivated!). I'm adding this to my weekend to-do list. :)
I definitely love your ideas, Shannon. I confess I'm a little bit obsessive with lists, so this is perfect for me too :D Hope your week is going well! Hugs from Portugal,
Shannon those are the cutest things! Great idea! I make list too but usually forget to take them with me. lol Thanks for linking up at Transformed Tuesday. Hugs, Peggy
This is such a cute idea! I currently use a paper menu to mean plan per month but the paper waste is starting to drive me bonkers. Especially when I'd rather be using my papers to clip coupons! ;) I think I'll be picking up some clipboards from the Dollar Store soon!
