A cork notice board might not be an immediate choice as a way to add a little bit of interest into a room in your home, but they can be a really effective way of brightening up a corner of your home at a very low cost.
And also a way to involve all the family in home decorating! Gone in the past are the boring cork notice boards you see which may give you a bit of a flashback from the quite interesting whole cork walls of the 1970s and they can now reflect a modern style - especially if you are ready to get a little bit creative with some paint, scissors and a few imaginative drawing pins.
The great thing about cork notice boards is that you can decorate them with something which is really personal to you, your housemates or your family which turns them into a bit of a talking point.
Pinning on pictures of a great holiday with your friends or major family events can get people talking and laughing and giving little anecdotes about funny stories that happened on the particular day.
And there's plenty of ways you can really get artistic with your cork notice board, having a colour theme or going monochrome can add a really nice flavour to it, and also reflect your style.
Cork notice boards are also really flexible, although you can create a collage effect in the clip on glass photo frames, you will have to glue your photos to the backing paper (which can ruin them) and also they are secured on there - there is no room for manoeuvre.
With a cork notice board however, pinning and unpinning pictures, memos, tickets or other little random notes is simple which means you can revamp your display whenever you feel like it.
Which means if you've got a great new photo to put up it can be up there in no time! It is a great activity for the family too, and a really good way to banish a dreary Sunday afternoon, beat the boredom and more importantly have a finished item you're really proud of by the end of it! There's no limit to the number you can have in your home either, so don't just limit it to the study or the kitchen, let your children decorate their own for their bedroom so they can keep their favourite memories close too.
