A Dry-erase calendar (purchased from target), a menu planning board (inspired from here), a chalkboard for notes (our repurposed writing slate), and a kid-level mirror (so the little ones can put on their own sunscreen).
The mirror was a dollar store find that I taped off and spray painted gold during our spray paint party.
One again. The door before:
After:
The menu board had a few failed attempts. The first one I forgot to take into account the 8x10 opening instead of an 8 1/2 x 11 opening. Oops. Then I got it right.

Love the pink frames. Did you attach the frames in any special way?
Love the menu planning... I need that instead of random lists that float around my island. :)
Cute and very cleaver idea! And you can close it up to put it out of the way! Thanks for sharing! -Jessica@GreenPB&Js
Looks great! I'm jealous! I don't have such a great space for my command central - so I will dream about your's instead! :) btw, I love your blue walls with the white trim and dark wood floors! Very classic and elegant! Thanks for sharing! Have a great week! - Kali
I really dig the idea of notice boards and menu lists on the back of the pantry door. Putting the menu and mirror at kiddy height is adorable :)
Ohhh.. I love it! The colors are fab!
Looking good!
Mission Control to Jessica...... with your command center up and running I will send you the next assignment.

Ok, the whole command center looks great...and stylish, of course...but I adore the addition of the mirror at kiddie level. Once again, you impress!!!

Love the mirror idea! I may use that one!
So smart! I need this exact thing in my house... somewhere... hmmm. :)
So cute, and I love the blue in the pantry. You are very organized.
Love the menu planning board. I many copy that!
Love the idea of the menu planning board....and that the kids have their very own mirror. How fun!
