One more Musical Memory/Picture Board. I used a scrap plywood board and extra batting. I used new Musical Print Fabric and Ribbon from Stampin' Up. The buttons have been in my stash for a long time. I found the clothespins at Walmart to attach things to the board. This board is on its way to its new home very shortly. I hope he enjoys it!

A weekly art/craft project by Ashlin, Sarah or Both. We wanted to challenge ourselves to be creative and try to expand our skills. We'd love to have some feedback and suggestions for improvement, so please leave a comment when you visit. Thanks! A few posts will be Tom's handy work, but Ashlin or I will be writing it up for him as he doesn't like to write.

More Memory/Picture Boards made for Christmas
I had a little fabric left over from the guitar I made for Etsy, so I made a memory board for Ashlin's room. I made a hunting camo board for Morghan, a Giraffe Board for Emmah, and a Teal Blue and Pink geometric Circle board for Mckayla. Tomorrow I need to make a music fabric themed board for someone else.
I try to find scraps of boards such as Luann, plywood, or siding that are left over. I chose fabrics each person would like and paired them with matching ribbon and buttons. From there, I measured and drilled holes for my needle to go through when attaching the buttons. I found sanding it down quickly is also a necessity. I added the batting and fabric and stapled the fabric to the back. I cut ribbon to crisscross the front, chose buttons to sew on and used some black cord to stitch the buttons to the board. Then, I stapled the ribbon the the back. Add a hanging hook and ...Voila! Finis!

A New Memory Board for Megan
I had a little fabric left over from making Megan's headboard, so I made a memory board for her room. I found a scrap of house siding that would fit the left over fabric. From there I measured and drilled holes for my needle to go through. I added the batting and fabric and stapled the fabric to the back. I cut ribbon to crisscross the front, chose buttons to sew on and used some black cord to stitch the buttons to the board. Then, I stapled the ribbon the the back. Check it out!
