Round Two of Updated Projects

March 28th, 2012 @ 4:46 pm by Mrs. Doe

I would prefer to not say that I changed my projects…updating is a better word. I can’t say I wasted time in creating these projects in the first place, because really what happened was that they evolved. (Or maybe I am just brainwashing myself and in reality I wasted a boatload of time and money. Oh well.)

Awhile back I showed you my cork board collage, and you all were so helpful in giving me tips on how I could jazz it up. Since I was planning on *updating* all of my projects, now was the perfect time to spice up that cork board.

I just so happened to have found ribbon that exactly matches the sage green color of our napkins. You know how I am now with colors matching, so this was a huge find. I decided a big floppy bow at the top of the cork board would add some fanciness.

I also decided to paint the cork board because it was a little too yellow for my taste. I had really wanted to add burlap over the cork, but unfortunately when I started to deconstruct the board…I realized that was impossible. The cork was stapled into the frame in all kinds of crazy ways.

Here is my new and improved cork board collage:

Now I am off to go *update* (spend way too long completely changing…) another project.

What do you think of my updated cork board? Did I jazz it up enough?

Love your “updates”! It’s not like you are throwing everything out and starting over again. You’re just making everything you have look better. RIGHT?!?! :D

I think you can still add the burlap or another fabric without taking the board apart. We used to do something similar in college.

Just cut a piece only slightly larger than your cork (mean cm’s not inches) and then push it under the frame with something like a credit card.
