SO, to make both of our lives easier, I finally made a sign for our dishwasher (I've been threatening to make one for a some time now). :)
It's nothing overly fancy, but it's going to do the job just fine.
I used a paint colour sample swatch for the yellow background paper and some patterned scrapbook paper for the green border. I inked some of the edges too. I just handwrote the "clean" & "dirty".
I glued on some magnetic strips to the back so that it would stick to the washer:
And I used a glass pebble with decoupaged scrapbook paper behind it (which I made long ago and haven't yet found a purpose for, until today) as the movable "marker" - I glued a magnet behind the pebble, so now I can move it next to the appropriate word to indicate the SITREP (situation report, haha) in the dishwasher:
Lastly, I added some kitchen / dishes-themed buttons to decorate the sign with. And ta-da! :D

SO crafty! We just used a magnet- upright was clan, upside down was dirty. I like yours better.
it goes well with your my house was clean decoration too!
You found the perfect buttons for it! This is a simple organizing tip that I'll have to make too!
