I'm really enjoying spending time in my new craft room. I've been working on several projects lately and it's so nice to have all of my supplies in one place, a dedicated space where I can leave my projects out AND be able to close the door and 'hide' the mess!
I've been making a display board for our Retired Teachers' group, finishing up a quilt top and making a set of cork boards. I'll share the quilt top next time but I have the cork boards done and am pleased with their look and functionality.
I chose fabric, ribbon and stud tacks.
I haven't made one of these since I was in college...several years ago! The concept is the same but cork boards aren't. Years ago, they were about 1/2 -3/4 of an inch thick. These days they are only about a quarter of an inch thick. I had to use 2 of them to staple the fabric to the back.
So easy! I did the same to the back of the framed cork board. I followed directions from HERE.
Decorative stud tacks were added to the ribbons.
Here is the final product. Now I have a place to hang my calendar, book club list and lots of other "important information."
I'm wishing you a wonderful week! Let me know what you've been working on lately.
