Mom’s Mood- A WARNING TO HER FAMILY

I had a customer email me last week wanting to personalize her Pillow Talk with a different twist. I liked this idea so much, I made one for myself!
I had a bunch of these 4×4 tiles laying around from a mosaic I made 4 years ago. (I can’t throw away perfectly good tiles, but I hadn’t found anything to use them for!)
The square piece of sheet metal is a scrap from the Chore Charts I make and I just glued that onto the tile.
I used black puffy paint to frame the sheet metal to give it a more finished look.
I added the vinyl letters to the top in a fun font and then made 2 marble magnets; 1 red and 1 green. Displaying the green magnet means I am having a good day (or hour) and displaying the red magnet means WATCH OUT!
(… and you can probably guess what my day has been like thus far by which marble is on display for this picture! UGH!)
Anyway, the idea is simple and cute and easy to make!
