Make a funky noticeboard

If you’re looking for a cheap and dead easy way to brighten up your kitchen, study or the kids’ bedrooms, you’ll find directions on how to make a great noticeboard on the Web site of Real Living magazine.

You can pick up a cork noticeboard from your local liquidation store, IKEA, or a department store such as Kmart or Target for just a few dollars and you can use up some of your fabric stash or hunt down some new fabric to co-ordinate with your existing room decor. You could also add your own embellishments such as braid, ribbon, beads, etc. to further personalise your creation.

You’ll also find a similar project on the IKEA Hacker blog, using an IKEA frame – the IKEA Hack blog has heaps of ways to repurpose IKEA furniture. (Via the Life Hacker blog)

Check out the IKEA Hacker blog for cool ways to transform IKEA products.

These two projects have to be just about the the easiest and cheapest way to give your tired old decor a quick pick me up. And the results are only limited by your imagination.

I plan to make a couple myself when I get a chance, so stay tuned.
