Did you see my little workspace yesterday? One element that adds colors and charm to the space is the color blocked bulletin board. That is what we are talking about today.
This is an easy peasy project, that is if you like craft paint and paint messes. I bought these Cork trivets ages ago. I bought my first set when we visited Ikea a long time ago and shoved it somewhere and forgot about it. I bought it again on a later visit thinking its a good thing and again kept it some where and forgot about it. Until these came out while cleaning up years worth of junk.
But this time I didn't shove them any where because I have been thinking of a message/bulletin board for sometime. Thus this project was born.
Supplies :
Craft Paint
Paint Brush
Ruler & Pencil
Here is what I did.
The first thing is to decide on a design and colors to use. I tried many then settled for colors that would go with the other pieces in the room. Then I drew a rough sketch of to get a look and feel of the board I am making.
Then I started painting, which is kind of easiest part.

So what do you think? Wouldn't this be cool in an office or teen's room?

Hey Hannah, Thank you so much. I love those colors too, cheerful right!
DeleteI LOVE this idea! It also is great timing that I stumbled across this at Merry Monday since I made my first visit to IKEA over Memorial Day weekend and picked up some cork trivets....I'm so keeping this idea in mind for when I get around to jazzing my set up. This is also my Feature Pick of the Week at Merry Monday! Wahoo! Thank you so much for sharing this with us! I hope you'll join us again! :)
ReplyDeleteHi! How do you recommend hanging these? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI used command Velcro strips. Their regular double sided peel and stick strips also would work fine I think.
