Step 1
Start by downloading both of the cut files for the kitchen conversion charts above. Then just upload them to Cricut Design Space to begin cutting.

Step 2
Remove all excess vinyl from around the images as well as things like the centers of letters and numbers. Weeding tools make this a bit easier but are optional.
Step 3
Then use transfer tape to apply over your design. Press down well.
Step 4
Slowly lift the transfer tape and the design should come with it.
Step 5
Center on your wood chalkboard and press the vinyl down well. Lift up the transfer tape and your design should stay on your cooking conversion chart.
Step 6
Repeat for the other kitchen conversion chart.
And just like that…you’re done!
Tips for Easily Hanging Your Cooking Conversion Charts
- Use command hooks to hang them both on the inside of your cabinet door to keep yourself organized in the kitchen. I love using them because I can remove them at a later date, if needed, without damaging my cabinets or walls.
- I also used a few pieces of double-sided tape at the bottom to keep them still when I open and close the doors.
During my recent kitchen remodel, I added a set of these to my kitchen. Wanna see my new kitchen? You can see my full farm kitchen reveal by clicking here.

Love this! And such a great gift idea too!
It is a genius idea and it is a wonderful gift for my mom 🙂
Any chance you could make this with metric measurements as well? (litres)
I would not be able to do that. You can likely find the types of images you’re looking for on other sites like etsy.
