Have I told you how much I love Pinterest? Pinterest is chuck full of talented people for me to glean ideas from.

The cardstock was probably less than a dime. The frame I've had for years and years. But originally it was like $2 at Ikea. So maybe a nice box of candy canes. ;)
Here's the original, my inspiration.
I really like that she used a black frame. And I thought I had a black frame. But I can't seem to find it. story of my life. This deep purple frame actually matches well.
Now to wrap it so the crayons don't fall off . . .
