House and Home magazine has a fun DIY video on upgrading an office supply store cork board with paint, trim and ribbon. Watch it here. (Wish it was embeddable!) Here's a sample:
Centsational Girl had a great post Friday on building a custom bulletin board - and she built both a fabric one and a magnetic one:
Both of these sources are great ones as they have really specific instructions about the tools and supplies you need and step-by-step instructions so you could truly "do it yourself." I love the row of hooks Centsational Girl added below her fabric board and how she customized it to the space available. And I love the use of ribbon in both examples.
Here are my favorite bulletin board inspiration pics from houzz.com:

ReplyDeleteI am buying fabric ones for our bedroom. I'll find the link and post it. The wall in our room is too big and bare, but we will never have the money to put a real piece of art there. combine that with not being able to part with anniversary cards, etc. I thought, 1) we can afford it 2) why not just have a fancy bulletin board and post the cards - it will be such a happy space and 3) you know I don't really care about "theme".
Oh that's fun! And you know I can't bear to part with any of that stuff either. Can't wait to see them!
