Make an Awesome Cork Board for under $30

I'm dying to get organized this year. None of my supplies has a real "home", it's mostly tacked on my wall, shoved in a drawer, what have you.

In this DIY, I'm trying to find a place to put all of my notes, schedules, bills, ect.

what you'll need:
a picture frame
cork board equal or bigger that your frame
fabric
nails/hammer or staple gun
hand saw (if necessary)
turn buttons, d-rings, and wire (if your frame doesn't come with it)

All of the material above should cost under $30, personally, I paid about $12.



First, cut your cork to the size of your frame.
If your frame has glass or a backing, take it out and use it as a template.


Along the line you drew, carefully saw off the excess. Your cork should fit snug inside of your frame.



Next, Take your fabric, give yourself approximately 1" of room on all four sides.
I used pins in mine, but you could also use glue by folding the fabric around the cork, putting it in the frame, and gluing the back.


If you use pins, gently hammer them into the cork

You could also you a staple gun instead of pins.



When your fabric is mounted, put it into the frame and use the frame's turn buttons to secure it in place. If your frame didn't come with them, any hardware store of craft store would sell them.





Next, you'll need a wire on the back for hanging. If your frame didn't come with hanging material, hardware and craft stores sell everything you'd need.





Hammer a nail into the wall and start pinning your stuff!
