Memo Board

Frosted Vinyl is like Glass Etching without the commitment - glass etching is permanent, but this you can just peel off when you need to - love that.

I used it to label my memo board in my craft room.  I like how the labels are subtle, but there.  And if my categories change, I can easily change my labels.
You like my memo board??  It's been up for a while, but I just never showed it off to you - and I'm glad I waited - adding the frosted vinyl brought it to a whole new level.  Yes, it's just an old window - I hosted a garage sale and invited a few friends to add things they wanted to sell - one brought this over, and I took it right inside - score!

    I really do love every thing about this. Great job! I'll be searching my local ReStore this weekend for the perfect window to copy you!

  4. I love it! The colors are awesome! I can never seem to find any old windows like that. Maybe I'll have better luck in spring when the garage sales start back up. :)
