GENIUS!!!!! I have a 94 year old grandma that is legally blind that I help out. I brought her a regular dry erase board and "LIST" her appointments due to not being able to find a big enough calendar in the stores. This will allow me to have both options. Thanks so much for this awesome idea.
Carson at the end.... just precious! 😁
I switched to using Wet Erase markers. You can find them at Target & on Amazon. They never smudge when kept dry & come right off with a wet paper towel no matter how long you leave it. I also use them on Tupperware. The ink washes right off in the dishwasher! I'm totally hooked!!! My one caveat is that if the container you write on sweats, the ink does run but that happened to me with the dry erase ones too. XD
Your timing is incredible. I just walked away from a $15 version of this today at Target, thinking to myself, surely I can make a better version for less. And boom, there you are. Thank you for the great ideas!
🗓🗓🗓great idea! I liked the end. "This is not a real calendar. It is a pretend calendar." Carson is adorable!
Pretty calendar! I love the size & colors! Helpful hint especially as the kids get older and have a lot of activities & appointments: Assign each person in the family a different color marker. They have them at $Tree!👍 As always great video & ideas!
I am totally going to make this instead of buying a calendar! And I just loved the Carson bit at the end! He is so funny! Always puts a smile on my face! 😊
I love your channel because when I need something and want to save money I can usually find it here. I almost bought a dry erase calendar for my fridge but none of them were exactly what I wanted. With this idea I can create exactly what I need. THANK YOU!
WAY cool idea! I found that a little hand sanitizer on a kleenex tissue removes the dry erase from my daughters, letter tracing books (glossy pages). I love the idea by making it BIG. These real cheap calendars never leave enough space (or enough for a family of 5)! :)
enlightenedbygrace4U awesome and you could get an even bigger frame and make the squares bigger too!
:)
Another genius and helpful idea from Catherine! I love it. Now my kids are grown up, I don't need the calendar but this would work so much better than the white boards from the store. I love Carson at the end of the video. So cute!
I absolutely love this! I am buying the stuff today to make it.So love your videos,they help me be a better mom,grammy and wife. Thank you.
Hey Kathryn! I've been meaning to tell you and actually send you a picture BUT you can get those free marble samples from the mini kitchen displays at Lowe's or home depot and make cool labels with them. they already have a hole at the top so I was thinking of just sticking on a label and boom. they are sturdy and perfect. just a tip! I thought of you when I saw them.
did this make sense? lol
This is awesome Kathryn! You always inspire me! I noticed you said former teacher. I'm a long time subscriber, do you not teach anymore?
Marriage & Motherhood she did just have Owen so I'm sure that's why
Marriage & Motherhood yes, I'm staying home with my boys 💕💕 I'll always be a teacher, just more focused on my own four walls for these early years.
I love your videos!! Your boys are just the cutest. My second son was born a few weeks after Owen! I'm so unorganized and it makes me crazy. Watching your videos has been life changing for me!
samysboys aw that's so sweet. I'm so glad they have been helpful. Kisses for your little one!!
I'd love it if at some point you make a type of cheapy chore chart, especially one that can be interchanged. My boyfriend's children live with us part time and I know my son is only 14 months old but soon enough he'll have itty bitty little things to do around the house to 'help out' too so I want to try and make a type of chore chart for these munchkins!
That Carson is so cute and smart. I don't think I could take it to see him in person lol. Sooooo cute!
I love how large it is - good for the whole family!
Hi Carson....you are a cutie!
Omg! I would LOVE any videos you could do for teacher tips and tricks for being economical and organized!
Love love love this!! And you could change out the colors for different seasons. Even though I taught art for a few years, I NEVER knew you could use the plastic face with a magic eraser!!! Fabulous! Thank you for that great tip. I always buy my glass front frames from the thrift store. AND you can get some great dry erase markers from the Dollar Tree.
I cannot believe I waited so long to watch this!! It makes it all worth it( since I just finally got our family Cale Dee up.. I felt I didn't need to watch it) Carson at the end what a cutie!! I mean how did he get so dern cuuuute!?
I love love love this idea and what perfect timing right before the beginning of the new year, before having to go purchase another throw away one. Plus it's so large for multiple activities to be written on each day.
I love making things out of poster frames!
You know those t-shirt graphic walls in walmart? I reset those for the company I work for, and instead of throwing away the old graphics, I saved ones with characters that my nephew liked, and used a poster frame to make a poster collage as a gift to him!
Terrific project. I love how it can be customized to ANY colour scheme. I guess i could use "post it" notes for this, too. Thanks for sharing this.
So happy for you and that you get to stay home with your babies!! Love this idea. Going to get one at Walmart this weekend.🗓🗓🗓
This is such a neat idea! Our family command center was a game changer/life saver. We made out calendar from a $5 white board we got at an office discount store and thin electrical tape! Super simple, super functional, just what this momma needs! :)
Great idea! I plan on making these for my daughters for Christmas...one is a nurse and one is a teacher so I know it will be useful for them!
Awesome Ideas as Always !!
I use dry-erase markers on the fridge, wipes clean off and stays current.
quick note : if you do get ink on something, like Sharpie on a table or counter top or wall,
Lysol disinfecting spray will dissolve the ink. usually in the first spray and wipe. if not, in 2 sprays it should clean up completely. I was completely amazed.
this was an awesome idea! thanks for sharing! and i just love carson, i have 4 grown children and 8 grandchildren the baby one is 5 and the oldest is 18. i just love kids and yours are adorable.
I lived this video so much that I went out and got all the supplies today. I'll probably make it tomorrow 😁
I thought for sure you were going to say you used a label maker to type the days of the week. I just love all your amazing ideas,you are a genius! I love it, can't wait to try it! (I really didn't know the frames were so inexpensive!!! great tip!)Hugs! *love the carson outro!!
What a brilliant idea! Thanks, Katherine!
Two additional recommendations: Wet erase markers can be great if you struggle with things smearing easily, like when you go to write on another day. Fairly inexpensive ones can be found all over, but I found a nice set on Amazon. Also, if there are still issues with remaining marker residue, cheap dollar store rubbing alcohol works great. =) Thanks for sharing, I've been wanting to see this pinterest idea brought to life. =) Hope you and your family are doing very well.
I needed a calendar for the fridge and I knew you'd have my back. Love your work!
Love this idea! I'm definitely doing this in the new house 🏠
Kindercrafty yay!! Oh I can't wait to see it!!!
Kindercrafty Me too! We're moving in December but once we're all settled in I'd like to do this in the near future! Super cute!
Fantastic Kathryn love how budget friendly this is 🗓🗓🗓🗓🗓
fantastic!! and yes , those magic erasers are amazing! i always thought it was hype until i bought one. they work on literally everything! you know how you get that stuck on grease on your pans sometimes on the bottom ? or on the oven racks? those things will take it off better than brillo! i was shocked. and yes they are great on dry erase boards!
patricia mcdermott great tip. Never thought of using those for the bottom of my pans. I'm gonna try that this weekend. Thanks for the awesome tip!
A friend just told me that she used them on some 5 year old linoleum that had some deep impressions in the design. She figured it was worth a buck to try and she was ecstatic! She said it looked like brand new flooring once again!
yeah i was floored (no pun intended)..lol. i guess that is why they call them magic. they truly are. and thanks for the floor tip. i have old linoleum too and will be trying that for sure!!
Great idea! And the free paint color samples is a brilliant idea! I love your assistant at the end! A vlogger before he's even in kinder, lol!
I know it's an old post , but I loved it. Thanks alot. GOD BLESS
Very informative video. Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful day.👍🗓 😊
What a great idea! Much better than a laminated piece of paper. It turned out really cute. As for Carson 😍❤️
Love all of these videos! This is another awesome idea.
I LOVE THIS IDEA!! ❤️
What inspired you to do UA-cam? You're amazing!
Stores that sell paint HATE it when crafters come in and take all the paint chips. Just use some construction paper from the dollar store.
Amanda Reed They can hate it all they want. They work there so they know the paint chips are free. Everyone knows that anything that's free is here today gone tomorrow.
So that's a good excuse to just take whatever? They are complimentary for people who plan to buy paint... if you are just taking them to make a project like this with no plans to make a purchase, it's stealing.
Amanda Reed Do you eat free samples with no intention of buying the product? How is it stealing if it's free. There is no price, its free I'm not saying to go crazy and take it all but a couple paint chips here and there is no problem...they're frre
free*
Amanda Reed you're right is not fair to just go and take something and use it for your own personal use. I would say is kind of stealing!
I love your new hairstyle. looks so cute on you!
I love this idea! So easy and affordable!
love this idea...love all your diy projects
I love this idea ❤️, I'm gonna try it this weekend! Thanks for sharing 😘
It turned out so good! Love the colors.
omg. Carson is just so adorable.!!!!!!😊
I clicked wondering how crazy over the top Pinterest-y this would be (I say that with only admiration, LOL) and I can't BELIEVE how easy it actually looks. Going to try this. I might actually go to Dollar Tree for the frame and pick one up for a buck.
I love that you call it poster putty haha In Australia we call it blu-tack! I love the differences in what Americans call things
Rebecca Boys - I know, right? :)
Julz S Haha! Are you Aussie?
seen another my fav youtuber do this cheapcraftygirl, you guys should collab, help someone out. However I love her viston board a tad better, doesn't look like it would get in the way, with that huge board. I just love cleaner looks is all. Great job
Awesome! I will definitely try this I always eye the paint chips at the hardware store!
Loooove that dry erase tip....who knew.
Four years later, this is still relevant tip!
Wooohooo. ..love this idea, don't mind if I snag it! tfs! Carson. ..hi! 😊
Thank you for sharing your talent!!
Oooohhhh love it! Love the paint chips! So many color combos to customize!
Cute idea for calendar!!! I get my kick out of Carson!!!
Yay!!! He knows the days and the numbers!!! Yay!! Calendars!!! ;b
I love this! I'm a busy college student and I hate paying so much for a calendar that I'm just gonna throw away. I can't wait to try this out! 😊📅📅📅📅 (that's my snap chat calendar) lol
Mary 🙌🙌👍
not only you are lovely, but also só much creative. loved it, xoxo
You make everything look so easy! I'm definitely going to give it a try! Thank you so much for the video. Always a pleasant surprise to see your videos ❤️
What a great video! Thanks for the tips! All the way from the uk 👍🏻
Love this idea! I think I may use a small crafting punch to make a hole in the paint chip instead of the white construction paper, saves a step :-).
Also, it's so over the top for the one or two people that feel the need to complain about using paint chips. Get over it people! She has already said that she did buy paint. Even if she did not, who cares...they're free! If the leadership teams at these stores were loosing any sleep over people taking their FREE paint chips, I'm sure you'd see something in writing prohibiting it. SMH.
tfs, your videos are always very informative, great idea
Carson is so adorable ❤
YAAAAAS! I'm doing this! I need to organize my UA-cam life. TFS! :)
I am so excited to make mine I'm a new mommy and really needed this craft thanks so much
I really like your calendar Carson.
Wow!!! Very neat idea!!!
Wow I love love this idea!!! Tfs Kathryn! Carson ❤️️❤️️
I love this idea. I made 3 of these with 7 (A4 size) papers. One paper was about 0,5 euros. I used 5,5 cm x 5,5 cm squares.
🗓🗓🗓love this , you and your ideas!!
Que hermoso sun niño........ prentele la cámara más seguido por favor!!!!
Saludos
Am doing this right away Kathryn :) Thanks for making this look so simple n efficient at the same time !!! U rock as alwaysssssssssssss :)
OMG!! I just did this to organize my youtube channels. It was sooo easy to do!
This idea would be so much cheaper to do than buying a calendar every year. Thanks Katherine!
Love your DIYs!!
Love this idea!
I love all your videos!!! thank you for sharing your great ideas with us, I lvoe this planner!
this idea looks so fun n economical, going to make this, you r wonderful. Oh n I love Carson
Carson! 😂 What an adorable soul ❤️
Great idea! 📅
Awesome idea!!
Another great way to remove stubborn dry erase marker is hand sanitizer. Just a small blob on a paper towel and clean your surface. It works better than that Expo spray.
This is really cool, great idea!
I was wondering if you put magnetic strips behind each paint chip would that work.. Then you can make your own magnets like happy birthday, holiday ones... or just little decoratives. for each month??
what do you think
Oh my goodness, Carson 😍😍😍😍
Carson is adorable.
Looove this idea!
Can you do another freezer cooking vid
This video is giving me life!!!! I bought a cheapy one at Walmart and I hate it!!!

Great idea!! 🗓🗓🗓🗓
Hello Kathryn, loved your videos. Recently watched an old video of you where you have a weekly organizer on where you write your meals. Where I can found an exact one? Thanks again for your work
I wish I would have known this earlier!! We just bought one for $15. This is so much cheaper. I do need another one for a chore chart 😄
