Game time

I made a fun, funky memo board from a game board from my youth.

I remember playing Chinese Checkers with my sisters on this board.  The marbles are long gone but the game board was still in perfect condition.

I punched a couple holes in the top, ran a ribbon through it that makes a perfect hanger.
I made a few magnets with buttons that I had on hand and a fun, funky memo board is complete.

Now if I could find something equally as fun to do with some of my other game boards and pieces.

I love the bright colors and graphic elements
of this board. 
What a fun board to use to organize notes, tickets and even bills.
Happy crafting –
June

  2. I really love this recycled craft! I absolutely love Chinese checkers boards, they are so colorful and beguiling with their excellent graphic designs. I might have to get the next cheap one I find to use for this craft :D

  3. That is such a fun idea! I will definitely have to keep this one in mind next time I come across one of these game boards. :)
