Traditional bulletin boards can be a bit dull!

I found a simple way to add a bit of interest and to have board that can have larger size while being lighter…

In my Plateau project, I used a foam board from the home hardware store to create a board for my clients bedroom.

What I love with foam board is that it comes in a large sheet which can easily be cut to size and it’s inexpensive (about 10$).

I used 1 sheet for 3 different projects I had! This can work for you too. You may need a bulletin in your entry way, your dinning room and your home office… Just pick fabric according to each room’s aesthetic.

That’s exactly what I did!  I went shopping for fabric! You can always use fabric you already have and that can be a jumping point for the decor of the rest of the room.

Instructions:

  1. Place fabric on the floor (pattern facing the floor)
  2. place the foam at the center of the fabric, making sure there is enough fabric to overlap.
  3. Use tape (I used contractor’s tape) to secure fabric onto foam.. Start with the centers and work your way to the corners

Here is the final look:
