Tool Time Tuesday...Cork Boards From The Garden Center

Written By TT on Tuesday, September 8, 2009 | 6:19 AM

Hi everyone! Guess where I was this weekend...Home Depot. Not a big surprise though. However, I was in the garden section, which is really not my area and look what I found. Those cork mats that you put under plants to absorb the moisture. Hmmm...looks like cute message boards to me. They come in assorted sizes and were a little pricey in Home Depot. These were $20.00 for all 5. Try Walmart...they were cheaper, but ours were out of some of the sizes. My largest is 12 inches down to the smallest of 4 inches and they have a hard plastic backing.




Just take your favorite old buttons, hot glue on a thumb tack and you're ready to go.

I was thinking about using these in Courtney's new dorm room, so I only tacked them up temporarily on the wall above a desk until we go visit her again. I would use my favorite removable 3M sticky tabs to mount these. Wouldn't these look cute in a kitchen or above your sewing machine to hang notes or inspirations. You can even buy all of them in one size and line them up vertically in that hard to fill space in your kitchen, mud room or office. Have fun with them!!


Hope you have a great Tuesday,
