DIY Easy Custom Bulletin Board
I’m still working on my home office which I’m sure will be an ongoing process. One of the things I really needed was a place to tack up my notes. Little reminders, special numbers like my hex numbers, checklists etc. Currently I have been hanging papers on the wall with washi tape in front of my computer. Though I’m glad I found a use for the washi tape, as it has become somewhat of an impulse buy, however, it looks pretty bad. So I set out to make a bulletin board. One that would fit in this space so it needed to be short in height and long in width. Something around 12 inches high and 3 to 4 feet wide. Ready made bulletin boards are typically not that size, so I set out to make one. Here’s the tutorial for my DIY easy custom bulletin board.
The Materials
Originally I thought about foam board but then I was wondering how to hang it and came across a great poster frame which was just about the right size (11.75 by 36 inches). The frame just pulls off the backing. There’s a plastic cover and a cardboard back. So I cut the liner to fit the cardboard and stored the cover for a future project.
I’m happy with the end result. It fits perfectly in the area, and looks a whole lot nicer than papers hung with washi tape. See all the steps:
