Step up your meal planning game by letting your family know what’s for dinner with a tile menu board that will transform a basic ceramic tile into something functional and fabulous!
I am a big-time menu planner, so when my sister in law gave me this tile menu board for Christmas years ago, I pretty much thought it was one of the best presents ever. Even after all these years it still ranks with the microwave as one of the most used items in my kitchen! And the best part is that my kids don’t have to ask me what we are having for dinner every 5 minutes.
MY LATEST VIDEOSTo make your own, all you’ll need are some vinyl stickers and a smooth, ceramic tile. A shiny ceramic tile works best for this project. You want something with very little grooves so that when you wipe it off, marker doesn’t get stuck all the little lines of the tile.
This project also makes a great wedding present too. Combine the menu tile with a dry erase marker and an easel and you’re good to go!
Even if you aren’t that great at menu planning, people will think you are!

love this…simple and makes a great gift idea. Would work as a message board too. TFS!
I would love to make these for gifts this Christmas. I do have one question regarding making them. What did you used (product wise) for the word "Menu"? Could you please email me when you get a chance…I'm ready to make them!
I would like to know too!
I used vinyl stickers, but you could use a stencil and paint if you don’t have access to a vinyl supplier. I do sell these every so often in my shop, if you’d like to be notified of the next time they are available, please email me- steph@somewhatsimple.com
Have a great week…
Love this idea!
Do u have to seal the tile before writing on them ?
Nope! I jus took for a super smooth/shiny tile and it works like a dry-erase board!
