Inspiration Board & Custom Thumbtacks Directions

I had this old large wooden frame that a previous owner had left in our attic. It needed a little gluing. For the bulletin board part you need thick cardboard or a nice piece of foam board. You then cover it with some fabric of your choice and staple it into the frame.
