60 Days of Summer
...erasable checklist!
![]()
We are down to the final round of American Crafters before the final THREE are chosen! This has been so much fun! I've actually completed a few of my projects that I've had on my to-do list for quite some time now. This was a good excuse to get them done! :) This round is
...erasable checklist!
So, the first thing that comes to mind when I think of summer is... activities! I am excited to keep my kiddos busy this summer, and hoping that because they are BUSY- they will be happy! I've had these frames for a couple of years. They've been sitting in a corner just waiting for the perfect project. This is it!
(pardon the dust!)
This is what the frames originally had in them.
I covered the pictures with burlap
gathered the corners and wrapped them like a present
I glued a picture in the corner so the boys
could quickly figure out which one is theirs
I did two different vinyl sheets,
one for each of my boys! :)
I placed my vinyl right onto the glass of the frame,
this will make it dry erasable!
makes the black vinyl POP!
Now we can check them off as we accomplish each one!
60 days of summer, 60 activities to keep them entertained!
...and both boys have their very own GOALS!!
They are so excited to start checkin' things off the list!
Yay for summer!!!

Really fun idea! Maybe if they finish all 60 early, they can erase and start all over again!
Voted for you:)
I love this and it is right up my alley...awhile back I used a frame I had sitting around forever to make a weekly menu board:http://chrystal-lewis.blogspot.com/2010/09/wipe-off-weekly-menu-board.html
Such a cute idea! I love the burlap!
I love the idea of putting the vinyl on the glass instead of under. It looks SO good!
I love, love, love this!! And I'd really love to get a closer look at your list to steal some ideas to do with my boys. :)
Amazing project, Marni! I adore it!!
Such a wonderful idea! I just voted for you.
Oh awesome project! That's really cool, I'm definitely voting for you :D
I LOVE this project! I definitely voted. Thanks for popping over to my blog and becoming a follower. Good luck with the American Crafters contest.
LOVE IT!!!!
And mark me as voted!!!
Would you put up a print out of your 60 days of summer activities?
I love how you organized your list. I made something similar but we randomly draw out activities to do. However, "the randomness" has caused drama because there are a few activities my son REALLY, REALLY wants to do!!! I am a brand new blogger and you can check out my list at: http://beckysbuzzings.blogspot.com/2011/05/actual-summer-bucket-list.html.
I love the vinyl on the burlap. We made our list yesterday but my kids don't read yet so it's a coloring in one. Have a fun summer!
Love it!
Great idea!
Great idea, I bet my little boy would love to come up with a list like this. I hope to do some fun activites like these over the summer in addition to helping him keep his academic skills sharp, I blogged about those plans here hope you stop by.

Thanks for posting this I need to do something like this at my house! Thanks for the summer list ideas too!
I'm a new follower and will be featuring this on my blog Tuesday!
LOVE this!! Love it with the vinyl. It makes it so easy to reuse each summer. Fantastic job!!
This is truly sweet and so inspiring! Thank you! I have been worried about how to keep the kids occupied this summer :)
Did you transfer the vinyl on the inside of the glass? And also, any vinyl you recommend? I looked online and it shows I need transfer paper too. I have never done transfers before :)
