I needed a couple of small bulletin boards for our home for when my son started school in order to stay organized and I didn't have any money to buy any. So I searched around my house for materials that I already had. I used some heavy duty packing tape that I had from our last move and taped four of the same size boxes together as the base.
I had some old curtains (thick material) and my son's old shower curtain (thin material) that I had kept because the fabric was still really good - my mom always said, "Fabric is fabric". I cut the thick material and the thin material to fit around the boxes - with about 2 inches on each side so that it would wrap around to the back. I started with the thick material and taped it onto the boxes and continued with the thin material over the thick material. I used two nails and hammered them onto the wall.
The cardboard of the boxes works well with staples or push pins to keep your papers in place. I used 2 materials because I wanted the thin material on top, but the boxes would have shown through. I used the thick material as a backer. If you have thick material that you want shown, you would only need that. |
