Fabric Covered Cork Boards
I was roaming through Ikea one day and found these heat trivets that I thought would be perfect as cork boards for my office makeover that I am doing. The hubby started his own company, so I wanted to redo the office for him so he would enjoy doing work in there(post on the office makeover will be coming soon!). I hung them up and they looked perfect for what I was going for. A couple of weeks later, I was thinking how much I liked them better than my plain old square cork board that I have had for years in my craft area. I decided that they would look even cuter covered in fabric, so I made my way to Hobby Lobby to get some cute stuff. All you need to do is cut a circle about 2 inches wider than the cork and use a hand stapler to secure the fabric on the back. Then I cut the extra fabric off. You can use a hot glue gun, but I didn't want to burn my fingers and thought the stapler would hold the fabric better. I used 3m strips to hold them onto the wall.
