a menu board twist.....

Remember that menu board I made?


well, when the lady ordered it she asked if there was a way to attach an envelope to the back...to hold all the recipes. I had said GENIUS!

but I didn't want a boring old envelope....so I made one...

I took an envelope
and opened it up big

and traced it on the paper of choice

and cut it out.


I scored the edges that would need folded.....
it just makes it fold up so nice.
I then attached so sticky velcro on the edges.

and one for the lid

fold it up.... 

and fill with your recipes

see my pretty little glue gun in the corner? take that and run glue all along the front of the envelope and attach in the corner of the menu board....

makes it perfect for getting your recipes out..you won't have to dig in and to try to get them all out.



did I mention that I am selling these menu boards...just click HERE for more info
