Upcycle An Old Frame And Some Corks Into A DIY Dry Erase Board
Huge Colorful Magnetic Board
A cheap piece of sheet metal can be used as a base and a wooden frame around it to dress it up was my first thought. They sell dry-erase paint that would cover the sheet metal. There also are metal paints that can be put on any surface to allow magnets to stick.
