Cheap and Fun ~Push Pin Memo Board~

​Do you have an office space, craft room, or maybe even a child’s room that needs a pop of color and functionality? Well there is a cheap way to do this! For less than $20.00 you can make a cute push pin board.  While I was away my husband worked hard on creating an awesome craft space for me!!! (How sweet is he?!) He did all the hard work and when I got home I just had to organize all my supplies and add a few extras to finish the space.  (I’ll show off this space on a later blog.) While this made my craft area way less chaotic I still wanted to add some color.  The room is in the unfinished side of the basement.  So this little project was a perfect fix to cover some wall space.  

​I went to Home Depot and had them cut a 4 x 8 ($10.00) piece of foam board. Mostly because I needed it to fit in my car!  I knew I was going to have a bit of a problem getting it in the back seat, but the board has a little flex and these two nice older gentlemen helped me give the board a push.  Don’t flex it too much it will break. 

After this all you need some fabric (about 2 yards for my project) and a staple gun.  Cut the fabric, pull it over the edges, and staple it. There it is! A one of a kind push pin memo board!  If you wanted to get extra fancy you could even add molding around it for a fun framed board. Thanks for reading all.
