I love the idea of changing out my kids artwork, fun quotes and family pictures. I have a couple places to hang my kids work in the kitchen but it appears to be overtaking my house. Then I saw these…

I love them. Love the idea of using old frames. I decided to create a whole wall of corkboard frames for our gameroom.
After a digging through a couple closets and visiting a couple thrift stores, I was ready to start laying it out…
It looks a bit ugly laying it out as the frames don’t work together … yet!
A little matte finish ultra white spray paint … they looked much better! I picked up a couple sheets or corkboard at my local craft store. I tried cutting them down with a jigsaw first but it tore up the corkboard edges. I switched to a dry wall saw which cut the corkboard perfectly. I cut each piece a tiny bit big so I could wedge the corkboard in.
With the help of my handyman (husband), we hung them on the wall…
The before and after …
I added a few photos and prints …
Now to gather some artwork by my kids and big photo of my son … to fill in the rest of the empty spaces!
