DIY Refrigerator Notepad With Free Printable Cover And Refills

The time had come to make out my meal plan for the week and get my grocery list underway. I keep a magnetic notepad on the fridge where I write down any items I run out of or realize I need during the week. I went to grab this notepad to write out my list and noticed it has a picture of a snowman printed on all the pages. Winter is over and the snowman is no longer relevant “refrigerator decor” for at least the next 8 months. There has to be at least 40 or 50 pages left on this notepad. Hmm…with a little finger tap to the chin…I start thinking, I could always buy a new notepad but that’s an item I usually just happen to stumble across during random shopping trips. So, instead, I decided I would make up a cover page to add to the front of the notepad with some cute graphics that translate to anytime of the year and not just one particular season. I figured while I was at it, I could make up refill sheets and never have to stumble across those little notepads during shopping again! While I’m at it, I might as well share these printables with you!

I also created this printable with lines and it can be used as refills to your notepad.

As I was writing this post I realized you could easily make your own notepad from start to finish. The only other things you would need are a piece of cardboard cut to size, a magnet, and a ribbon. If you don’t have cardboard you could use a piece of heavy duty card stock as your backing. Just glue on a magnet and punch holes for the ribbon to go through.

After cutting my printable into 3 separate sheets, I lined one up with my notepad to determine where to use the hole punch.
