DIY mini pretty whiteboard

Hey everyone!
Here is a quick tutorial on how to make a super cute, super snazzy(LOL) whiteboard!
What you will need:
~old picture frame
~pretty paper
~dry erase marker

******Optional: You can first spray paint your picture frame if you do not like the color

Okay, so you will want to take out the back of the picture frame and cut out a piece of pretty(scrapbooking paper is great) paper that will fit into the frame like a picture(:
Next, you will place the back on, hang up your picture frame and write using your dry erase marker onto the glass!
And ta-da! All done! You can also change the paper for every season:)
