Want to add some pizzazz to the Life Skills you’re teaching your children? How about a framed chore chart?I’ve wanted to frame the Chore Charts for forever. Did I? No, never made it on the to-do list.

Why switch now? The paper copies were getting torn, I’d never print out new ones, we’d forget to mark off the completed chores, and on-and-on.
PLUS – my kids never got paid for completing their chores, which defeats the purpose of the Spend-Save-Give banks.
How to turn your thrift store frame into a great dry-erase chore chart:
1. Purchase a photo frame with glass. My frames were gold.
2. Optional – Spray paint your frame. I used my favorite Rustoleum Rubbed Oil Bronze. It is the best! I’ve used it on many items in my house – frames being the most popular.
3. Print out your chore chart. Printable chore chart ideas available here >>> Chore Chart
4. Pop it into the frame. DONE!
Suggestion: I recommend these dry erase markers available from Amazon. I love how the eraser is attached.

Hello! My name is Rachele. I just found your blog while researching some GKGW stuff and found your chore chart. I LOVE IT! My kids are under the age of 9 so I would like to borrow your wonderful chart and make one for each of my kiddos that is suitable for each of their ages. Thank you for any help and thank you for sharing your mommy smarts… 🙂 Rachele
