Recycled Bulletin Board


I did not want to "buy" a bulletin board for my desk so I looked around to see what we had on hand to make one

I had this white frame that I used in many ways for decorating. 
 
I had some cardboard and thin foam too in my "junk" box

I turned the frame around and added a piece of cardboard to it with glue 
I used the pushpins to hold the carboard until the glue set
 
Once the glue was dry... a few hours later I then turned the frame over

 
I then added the foam by gluing it down to the cardboard

I decided to use paper for the background so I added some PINK ribbon to the edges
I then just tacked the paper with button pushpins
 
And here it is ... all finished 

 
Nice cords eh!

I am pleased with the way it turned out...even though my desk is still CLUTTERED!
Ugh! keepin it real!
