Tile Notepad Holder


Craft supplies:
  • 4 x 4 White tile
  • 6 x 6 Wood block
  • Black permanent magic marker
  • rub on decals or stencil to paint your own design
  • Dry-eraser marker
  • Acrylic paint
  • 2 part epoxy glue
  • Small strip of Velcro
  • Picture frame teeth hanger
  • Notepad Holder


    Instructions:



    1. You can either cut out your 6 inch square or buy one already cut to size

    2. Use a white tile left over from other projects, or purchase inexpensively in home decor stores.

    3. First, sand the wood square and wipe off any dust. Paint the wood the color of your choice in acrylic paint. I chose to do only one coat in order to see some of the grain in the wood.

    4. After the wood square is dry, apply your choice of rub on decals or paint on a stencilled design.

    5. Seal the wood block with sealer - I used a satin finish sealer.

    6. With the permanent marker, write at the top of the tile, "Notes" or "Grocery List." I wrote "Notes" so when I place it outside and someone stops by when I'm not home, they can leave me a message.

    7. Using the epoxy glue, glue the tile to the center of the wood block. This glue is easier than it seems to use and creates a permanent bond.

    8. Attach the sticky side of a strip of velcro onto the wood and attach the matching piece of Velcro to the dry eraser. Now attach the marker to the wood.

    9. Finally, attach the picture frame teeth hanger on the back of your tile holder to hang it wherever you like. Enjoy!
