Altered Refrigerator Calendar

When my kids were little, our refrigerator door was always full of school papers and drawings
but it's been so long since we've had any drawings to showcase.

:(

This is what our refrigerator looked like...
check out the calendar...love the small size but nothing else about it..

just plain.....and boring...

So this year I decided to alter the little calendar up a notch or two.

I tore off the top part which was magnetic...

found a lightbulb package to use as chipboard...

And pulled out my favorite October Afternoon paper and attached it to the chipboard...

(then I forgot to take pictures, because it went together so fast!)

I added some burlap trim...

and a iamroses flower....

On the bottom, I attached green pompom trim and ribbon...

Because it was a little heavy, I added magnetic tape on the back...

I love how it turned out....

Do you have a calendar on your refrigerator?

My refrigerator now shows off my personality...

and also the super cute birth announcement...

You can also find my project on Pinterest

I was inspired by My Little Birdie Secrets!

Happy Thursday!
