. . . for Lauren and Lauren: Thankful board

Thankful board

  
I'm super happy because I have completed one of my New Years' resolutions.  I have been wanting to do something to continue our Thanksgiving tradition of making a list of things we're thankful for and decided to make a little bulletin board for Addilyn's room.  Now each night before we put her to bed we think of one thing we are thankful for that day.   I love how it turned out and love our new nightly routine.  
cork tiles: Target ($5)
letters: Target ($1)
paper: Hobby Lobby ($3)
paint: Hobby Lobby ($2)
 I used the top of another paint bottle to make the polka dots on the corkboard.  I had to fill them in a little with the paint brush/sponge. 
 I used a hot glue gun to glue the letters to the string. 
I figured I'd use one scrap paper for each week.  I plan on keeping each of the weeks' thankful lists and making a little book of all of them. 
Hooray for one resolution down!
