This project went over huge with the kids. First I only made a set of 2 for Trebor. The result was Tagg removing on board forcibly from the wall. Sinc I am trying to decide how to redecorate the room I got over it fast. I found the idea on a travel site a few years back. But pinterest added the paint and I was sold.
Mats:
Inexpensive cookie sheet, any size
Spray paint primer
spray paint

I did not sand them since I was not looking for a perfect finish. Also, I did not want to put a a huge amount of work in when I was painting in the garage at barely forty degrees in the wind.
(we have a white SUV and there was a bit of a scare with the wind.)
I have put up the round ones on the kids doors, and the largest on their walls. The small tray is portable, but they are forbidden to bring the trays and letters out of their rooms. I want to encourage the kids to put stickers on them and just make it their own. Now I think we need a couple in the kitchen! Blue and green on the pale yellow walls will pop. And the fridge is over covered with school work and pictures.
