Easily Customizable Message Board
This board can easily be changed to match your decorating moods.
I found this frame at a plastic clearance shop. It is made of a double layer of plexiglass and already has a gap cut to make inserting a sheet easier.
When I asked them how I should hang it, they showed me these hooks and offered to glue them in place with their own special glue. If you are doing this yourself watch out that you use a glue that us compatible with plastic and doesn’t make it melt.
With the frame sorted the rest is very easy. A couple of sheets of paper, celophane, stickers, something to draw, cut and paste with. I found the celophane at a craft store and seeing that Memphis-style is in fashion again...
Cut the backing sheet to fit into the frame. It might need trimming.
Lay out out the design and then glue it. The trick is to not make the background too dark or busy that your writing is not visible. Also remember that the left top corner will be used the most, so don’t make it too busy.
The rest is self-explanitory except I should mention that you need strong nails or whatever to hang it from. Plexiglass is heavy.
