So this is my version of the birthday calendar board that I have been seeing on pinterest. I have actually wanted to do this kind of thing for a while. I have just been waiting for a good moment to request someone make me the frames. Mother's Day was a good time. This is STILL not complete, but I am tired of waiting. It will have a piece of molding to cover the edges of the pin board and calkboard separating them from the calendar.
This board is pretty large, being 3' x 4', but we have a large family and I figured there would be more family and friends in the future. The lettering is from the cricut. The hooks are from the local hardware store. I measured everything out and made the grid. Pre-holes were drilled for the hooks and then they were screwed in the board. The only place I could find little frames here so I made them work. Other than that it was just painting and gluing. We already had a pin board which I cut to fit my purposes and I used chalkboard paint on wood for the other half of the message area.
