Workout inspiration
Repurposing flashcards.
Framing flashcards is a thrifty way to decorate any room in your home. Exercise terms are inspirational for the workout room, food flashcards would make a unique menu display in the kitchen, toy related words such as kite, ball, bike would be fun in a kid's room, and wash, dry, fold for the laundry room.
Individual flashcards can be used in a variety of ways to decorate, to label drawers and cabinets, and to extend an invitation or send a thank you note.
Search garage sales and antique stores for flashcards, or make your own.
Check out the slide show below for flashcard ideas from Amy at WhisperWood Cottage.
