Magnetic Chore Board

When I saw this Magnetic Chore Board craft by Lil Luna, I knew I had to try to create one for Cecelia.  Mine is a little different, but still the same concept.  If I were to do it again, I think I would choose a bolder color scheme and a less patterned paper, but it is still nice the way it is.  I made it pastels to match Cecelia's room, but hopefully her next color scheme will be brighter so I can make a new one :)

Also, since it is one of the first times I worked with fabric, I tried modpodging the letter stickers on since I didn't have vinyl to work with.  It made the fabric stick to the sheet metal underneath, creating a little dark spot around the letters.  Next time, I will try a different method of sticking them on.

I may embellish it a little more, perhaps add her name or a little glitter on the centre of the flowers to add some more bling, but I am leaving it for now until I am certain what I want to do.  It looks nice the way it is, I just think it's missing something.  I'm sure someday it will hit me what it is.
