Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Create chore charts which include their daily schedules for each of your kids.
I purchased all of the Fabric at Jo-Ann’s Fabrics except the grey chevron fabric which I got from Southern Seam Fabrics.
Step 2
Print off the Tip Junkie “ways to celebrate” lists that corresponds to each month. Yep, they are free printable traditions made to create memories that matter for your kids.
Here are all the links:
New Year
Valentines Day
St. Patrick’s Day
Easter
April Fools Day
Mother’s Day
Father’s Day
End of School
4th of July
Halloween
Thanksgiving
Christmas
ServiceAnd yes, they are all FREE!
Step 3
Take your time laying out everything you want to include and find a collage that works for you.
I purchased the magnetic boredom buster chart on Etsy at Abby’s House.
Just in case you’re wondering, I purchased the fabulous felt flower yarn wreath in my mud room on Etsy from ItzFitz.
Step 4
Spray paint any the decor details so that they all match the color scheme.
Tip: If you’re spray painting, consider using a grey primer first. You’ll have a better result.
Step 5
Some of the things you can include into your family command center are:

Where did you get the cute door knob hangers and mirror? Did you create the chore charts on your computer? Template/program?
Momaboo ~ Thank you for asking. I purchased the crown mirror and the door knobs at Hobby Lobby. Yes, I tried to create the chore charts on my computer in Microsoft Publisher but they didn’t look good. So I hired a graphic designer on Etsy. I added some more details here https://tipjunkie.com/tutorial/kids-magnetic-reward-punishment-magnet-chore-charts/ I hope this helps. {knuckle bumps} ~ Laurie {a.k.a. the TipJunkie}
