This past week I was inspired by this Blessings Board I came across from Less-than-Perfect Life of Bliss. It is much larger than what I did and has more flowers, but I wanted mine to be simple and quick. I think we all need a board like this to remember to count our blessings and thank God for the things He gives us. I can't wait until Ellie can spell and write her own blessings on the frame. This would also be a great project for an older kids room, almost like a dry erase board for their room. You can make it in any size that you find at a discount store or garage sale. Paint the frame, use fabric behind the glass...the possibilities are endless!

| $3 Walmart frame |

| It looks like wood but it's actually plastic - shhh, don't tell! |
 |
| Cut scrapbook paper to size and add stickers for the text. |
 |
| I made a flower out of fabric and burlap, attached them with a brad and scrunched up some tulle for the back. I adhered it to the frame with Gorilla Glue. |
 |
| I used a simple dry erase marker but want to get some of the chalk markers. |
 |
| Quick, easy and inexpensive project to remember our blessings! |
Don't forget to support Breast Cancer Research
A lovely reminder, now off to repurpose a frame!

Great job! I love how you adapted it to make it your own. Thanks for linking back to me :) I've had a few people do this project & tell me about it, so I may do a post showing them off!
