Wet Erase Weekly Menu Fridge Magnet




I don't like a lot of things on my fridge. In fact... the girls art work goes up only for the day. I have never put magnets on my fridge before. Not even... the famous Leap Frog Fridge Phonics magnets.
I don't like bulky items on my doors...I am in those doors a million times a day.
I just like a clean fridge.
This is just me.

However, starting today... I just changed that rule.

I decided I needed something on my fridge.

A WET Erase Weekly Menu Magnet.

I like to plan out my meals. I usually write them down in my family planner. I decided I wanted a Wet Erase Weekly Menu on my fridge, that way I can do a better job in preparing my meals and the rest of my family can know what is for dinner.

I created this Magnetic Weekly Menu.

Here are the Directions:

I hung it in my kitchen on my fridge and I love the simplicity of it. My girls sat there and read the menu for the next week. They got excited!
The menu can change and I can erase it with a wet paper towel. I choose wet erase because the pen is a fine point pen. I like being able to see the words clearly. The dry erase pens do work... in fact the pink date night is with a dry erase pen.
Just wipe it off with a paper towel and viola... a weekly magnetic menu!


Happy Meal Planning-
Carrie
