Hey guys, today I’m showing you how I made 6 cork boards for less than $13.

First I went to Home Depot and bought a Sound Choice insulation sheathing borad for $11.78. I used 1 board and had the guys at Home Depot cut it into 6 pieces. We already had a can of spray adhesive, but you can buy it at Home Depot for for $5.75. Lastly, I went to a thrift store and bough a cotton shower curtain set for $1.99 50% off, so it was just $1!.

Warning: This material although fantastic for this project, does fray a little and can be itchy. Wear gloves and avoid skin contact as much as you can :)

Instructions:

1. First start by spraying the adhesive glue to the board. ( You can also use regular glue but it might not be as smooth looking)

2. Then place it sticky side down on top of your material. I find that this is much easier than trying to place the material on top of the board.

3. Flip your board over and smooth out any wrinkles.

4. Trim off the access Material so you are left with 1 1/2- 2″ all the way around.

5. Spray or glue the adhesive the the edges of the backside of your board, then fold over the material.

6. This is optional: I choose to use the left over material to cover the entire back since this material does fray a little.

And…YOU’RE DONE! You can leave it plain or add some ribbon for more flare
