The Amana Jot Dry Erase Refrigerator...and a DIY Solution

072309jotdryerasefridge.jpgIt's too bad that this Amana Jot refrigerator looks like it's being phased out from their line of fridges. The idea of coating a fridge with dry erase seems like a perfect solution for a common practice, as many of us use the fridge not only to keep out produce fresh, but also as a household schedule and message board...

But if you're looking for a DIY option, you can convert all or part of your existing fridge using dry erase paint. There are a couple of brands to choose from, and these will give you an option to paint just a section of your fridge for dry erase use without having to purchase a whole new fridge.

funny, makes me think of the website Miranda July did where she wrote on a fridge like a dry erase board... then later the stove because it was easier to erase.

I wish I was brave enough to paint that much of my home in one bold color. I think it's beautiful!
