I talk about my queue board a lot, but did you know that I have an actual board I keep track of all of my orders on?
I took two magnetic whiteboards (less than $5 apiece at Target) and glued them onto a long piece of cardboard.
I then covered the boards as seamlessly as possible with pink cardstock. I first tested to make sure that the magnets would still work strongly on top of both the cardstock and any paper I wanted to affix to it magnetically.
I then created a grid by gluing down thin pink ribbon evenly over the paper.
To finish the edges nicely, I created a border of a wider pink ribbon and lace.
I then glued/taped down all of the excess thin ribbon...
...which I covered by wrapping thick white ribbon around the whole thing. I left excess ribbon at the top to hang it on the wall.
I then affixed two long loose ribbons to separate the catagories I wanted to distinguish later.
For magnets I bought simple black and white rounds (also at Target). I covered them with light pink acrylic paint. It took a couple of coats to cover the black completely.
I then found some sparkly beads...
...and glued them to the top of the magnets to finish them off.
All that remained was to create a cute little box at the bottom to hold the blank info cards and a pen.
Voila! Queue board! (names removed for privacy)
I was pretty pleased with how it turned out.
That's a great idea! Looks so nice.
