« Freelace Friday: Kapow! Comic Book Chair... | Main | Tuesday Tutorial: Doodled Laptop Bag »
It's the start of a new week, and with the kids continuing to head back to school for a new year we wanted to help you create some fun back to school supplies. Homework will be more fun with this personalized clipboard. Debbie Saenz designed this clipboard using Mod Podge and FolkArt hi-shine glaze. A clipboard is something that can always come in handy, your kids can use it, and as a parent you can use it too. Add an additional touch of personalization to this project by using a wood letter. This way everyone will know whose creative board this is. Enjoy!
