Day 323 - February 13, 2011 - Calendar Project

I borrowed this from someone else's blog and since I

printed it off to copy a few weeks ago, I have

no clue whose blog was I borrowed it from...

SORRY....

but thanks I loved what you did with the

Christmas paper calendar like this but

I wanted one for my desk at work so

I went with the black theme.

Sorry again, for not have step by step directions but

I was playing games with my grandson in

between steps and the shots I should have

taken, did not get taken!

I used two wooden blocks from Hobby Lobby.  .99 cents each

A wooded plaque piece also from Hobby Lobby.  .50 cents

5 different styles of scrapbook paper.

 6 would have been better but I could not find another

black and white print I liked.  So each block has

one style used twice...NO biggie.

Black paint, had on hand.

Mod Podge, had on hand.

Painted the blocks and plaque black.

After that dried I mod podge the squares I had

cut onto the blocks. Letting that dry.

Then with black paint I painted on the numbers.

Block one should have 0, 1, 2, 4, 5,

Block two should have 0,1,2,6,7,8,

be sure your 6 can be turned to use as a 6 or a 9.

Then I Mod Podge over the whole thing.

Easy....just have to wait between drying of paint and mod podge.

Thanks for stopping in.
