Orderly Chic - Review & Giveaway! CLOSED

I'm sure you might have realized by now that I am a bit of a planner and thrive on being well organized. When Kay from Orderly Chic, a unique line of organizational products, asked if I would be interested in trying out one of her items, I jumped at the chance.

"Orderly Chic is the brainchild of industrial designer Kay Magnie McLellan, who says “In 2001, I was given a boost into a new career by the universe.” Diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Kay was no longer able to put the long hours in at the computer required for her job in interface design. After a “period of mourning” as Kay calls it, she decided to leverage her new condition to design products that eased the stress and pain of everyday life -- ills that are magnified when living with a chronic pain condition – to promote well being."

Kay's List Boards and Note Boards are essentially white boards with style. They are much prettier and more creative than your standard office supply white boards, but function just the same. I recently started mealplanning each week (as opposed to just buying random groceries and spending 20 minutes each night hemming and hawing over what to make for dinner), so I thought that the Weekly List Board would be perfect.

Even the markers are magnetic!
I love having this visual! I can never seem to remember what I plan on cooking every night, and lately I've been misplacing my grocery lists when I return from the store, so this board serves as the perfect reminder as to what I planned on preparing. M also likes being able to see (and hopefully look forward to) what is for dinner each night. The board has magnets in each of the four corners, and holds onto our refrigerator very strongly. It is 22 1/2" high x 7 3/4" wide; it fits perfectly on the upper freezer portion of our fridge. I absolutely love that the two markers that come with the board are also magnetic! Otherwise I'm sure they would get lost in my house.

This Weekly List Board doesn't have to be a menu board, you could use it for your class/activity/work schedule. Or maybe a reminder to write certain blog posts on certain days of the week (lol)?

Close up, in case you really want to see what is on our menu
Bottom line: I love this board! And now I'm hungry...stuffed shells...mmmm...
