In today'due south mail: how to build a giant flick bulletin board for ten bucks!

Whatsoever other members of the "I have and so many blank walls in my home I can't even brainstorm to call back how to decorate any of them" back up group out there? Show of hands? I call back it's like shooting fish in a barrel to assume from blogs that every person in the world has a beautifully decorated home, full of gallery photo walls and DIY designer knockoffs and thrify finds spray painted white or metallic to perfectly accent the vintage flea market finds that adorn the mantel. I wish… My dwelling house is a little bit busy, here and there, but in that location are lots of blank walls…and the things that are actually hung up on walls are often sadly out of engagement. Instance in betoken, I still have my Easter print up over my piano. How long agone was Easter? Anyway, all this is to say that when I think about decorating, I desire something unproblematic, inexpensive, and with a large impact ('cuz and then maybe I only have to put one thing upwards to make the whole room look cool). That's where this huge photo wall bulletin board comes in.

How to built a giant moving-picture show message board

This bulletin board is vii feet broad and three feet tall, and fills the space nicely above the couch in my front room. It's fabricated from soundboard, an inexpensive building supply you can find at Habitation Depot or Lowes for about $12. It comes in iv'x8′ sheets, so yous could make a bulletin board that's even larger than mine, or 2 4'x4′ boards, or any other combination you can think of.

I covered my slice of soundboard with a white thrifted sail. My sail was prissy and thick then information technology looks very white – if you are using a thinner white canvass you may want to buy a queen size and then you can double it before you lot wrap the board to brand sure the brown colour of the board doesn't show through.

The photos I used are all 4×4 archival prints from Persnickety Prints (check the giveaway post to see why I chose Persnickety Prints for this project–they're very cool!). Alternately, yous could order 4×6 prints from Costco and trim each one downwardly to 4×4. I used a square size considering information technology made my collage look very tidy. And all these photos got insta-fied using the Photoshop actions I talked well-nigh here. I know some people are iffy on the Instagram look, but I thought the super saturated colors and retro experience made for a fun collage.

Considering the photos are just pinned on instead of within a frame, I can swap out any photos at any time, pregnant I can gradually update this collage with 10 new photos every few months without having to have anything down from the wall.
