Well, here&#8217;s a way to make your own using Washi tape and its not only inexpensive but a fun eye catching focal point. Ours was used in my daughter Amy&#8217;s home office but it would be equally great as a family center. It incorporates Post-it Notes and you can use smaller ones and assign each person a different color or use large ones that fill the entire block. So many choices! We did ours in black and gold but get creative!

The only size limit is your wall.<\/li>\n<li>Measure out and lightly mark where your rectangle will be.<\/li>\n<li>Take your width number and divide by 7. Take that number and measure and mark across the top and bottom of your rectangle.<\/li>\n<li>Take your height number and divide by 5.
