I'm a "grab a scrap of paper or the back of an envelope" grocery list kind of girl.
But, when I found some old rolls of what I think is adding machine paper on a shelf in our garage
I had a "lightbulb moment".
Five minutes later I had this...
Simple.
Free!
still following,
Perfect! Sadly, I write my grocery list during the hymn singing in church. That organist needs to pick up the tempo. :)
ReplyDeleteI actually think it's good to write down the random things that come to mind during prayer or worship, (or hymn singing). The writing them down gets them off your mind so you can go back to concentrating on the other.
DeleteHow clever are you! My grocery lists go on the "Notes" app of my phone. I know, not nearly as creative as some, but seems to get the job done for me.
ReplyDeleteDuh! I actually never thought of putting my list on my phone. I'm such a paper and pencil type gal that I have a hard time switiching from a pen and paper planner to my phone calendar.
DeleteCute! I keep my grocery list on my phone these days. It's not as cute as your list but I never leave my list at home anymore!

See comment above to Elizabeth...can you believe I've never thought of putting my list on my phone...silly me!
DeleteWhat a great idea. So pretty too. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteThanks Patty!
DeleteThat is a wonderful idea!! I live and love a man who insists on leaving empty containers on my baker's rack so I don't forget to restock that item. I have tried to get him just to write it in my little notebook, but in his defense I tend to move the little notebook. This would work, I think.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like the idea. I'm sure there's a million ways to "cute-ify" it up.
DeleteLOVE THIS ELIZABETH! We have a BOX of those in our garage. Great idea!!
ReplyDeleteGlad it inspired you! I don't even know how we got these rolls of paper or from where!
DeleteFirst of all to Debbie--and I thought I had it bad because my husband leaves yellow stickie notes all over the place--smile--
ReplyDeleteI love this--if for no other reason, a cute decoration--and I love that you have healthy food items listed--I would forget and go off and leave it though--I STILL have to depend upon my memory--and that is getting more and more unreliable.
Smiling at the yellow stickies comment. Speaking of husbands, mine NEVER has gone to the store for me without getting the things on the list then other things he thinks we should have as well. :)
DeleteLove this idea! I normally use my phone, but other members of my household could use something like this, and then I could grab it and go!
ReplyDeleteOh man, I feel like an idiot. So many comments about putting the list on my phone, and I honestly never thought of doing that! Silly me!
DeleteOh my gosh what a great idea!! That would work with any kinds of paper rolls...like cash register paper.
ReplyDeleteI imagine there's all kinds of ways we could make this simple project!
DeleteThat is too cute...very very clever idea !
ReplyDeleteThanks, Christine!
DeleteSuch a cute idea! And you can tear off the exact amount of paper you need each time.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lisa. A no brainer project...just my type!
DeleteLove it! Guess what my techno-savvy daughter turned me onto? Using my iPhone for a place to keep my grocery list. Now I never forget it.
ReplyDeleteBut really, yours has a lot more heart.
You are now the fifth person to say they put their grocery list on their phone...I am now completely embarrassed that I never, ever thought of doing that before!
DeleteAmazing idea... so much better than on the computer.
ReplyDeleteThanks, friend.
DeleteLove it!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Debby!
