DIY Club 4 July! Whatcha Grillng?

I {heart} summer.

To me summer means bonfires at the beach,
hanging out with friends, and
GRILLING!

I like to grill,

but hubby always seems to take over

and then I get 20 questions...

"Where are the BBQ tools?"

"What are we having for dinner?"

- get the picture.

Well, I am nipping the 20 questions game in the bud...

I am a busy lady. Here is the solution!
A Grillicious Menu Board and Tool Holder

Supplies

*Design Divas Gallery vinyl wall art #1417 - my first time using vinyl - so easy and good looking! I am impressed.

*DecoArt Patio paint in Tuscan Red, Buttercup, and Wrought Iron Black

*Gorilla Glue Wood Glue

*Gorilla Tape

*Gorilla Glue

*Rockler Sanding Bug

*Rockler Foam Brushes

*Rockler Bench Cookies {optional}
*DISChangers, 5 1/2" size for the weight of my project

*Chalkboard paint

*Molding {cut with mitered corners to size} OR old picture frame*
*Trim lumber/wood about 1" wide.

*Plywood {cut to size}...I used a wooden game board from the thrift store.*
*Hooks {determine the size you will need by the overall finished size of your board and grilling tools.} I used pretty sturdy hooks so they would hold the grilling tools. I actually used magnetic backed (so the were flat) hooks. I bought them at Target.

NOTE: I used a decorative game board that I found at the thrift store. This game board was flat with 1" tall rim around. I liked this because it game a rim/lip, which would leave me some room for me to store chalk. I measured and cut my molding {that I already had} to fit the game board. This project is TOTALLY DOABLE with a flat piece of wood and a picture frame. I even considered putting this together {sans the molding} on an old cutting board or tray. The tutorial is based on creating this project from scratch.
