This feels like cheating a bit since I haven't actually had any time to craft lately. My craft room is more a dumping ground for papers and clothes that need to be mended or ironed. This craft is back from my baby bonding days: a glorious time when S napped more, I didn't work and I had more time on my hands.
I finally found a use for one of the metal serving trays that I got in a garage sale a gazillion years ago. It was very "retro Hawaiian" so it didn't really go with the vibe of my house but I got the idea from the blog Casey's Elegant Musings to turn the tray into a magnetic board. It looks great in my sewing/craft/cat room since the look is a bit more eclectic in there.
It's super easy. All you need is a tray, super glue and some metal picture mounts. Glue the mounts to the back. I did one on the short and long side just in case I turned it to hang later. A few seconds for the glue to cure and you've got yourself a cute metal memo board.
