Pin Boardzz

I have been tossing up for ages, about what to do/put up on the wall above my bed in my apartment. It is boring plain white and since there is nothing on any of the other walls in my room either, I really need to add some interest. I also need somewhere to store little knick-knacks (did I just use the word knick-knacks?) and postcards etc, that don't fit on the fridge.

Also since we are, of course, renting - it needs to be something easily removable.

Soooooooo I think a fabric covered pin-board is in order. I haven't had one of these since I was in Intermediate School (10-12 years old) and by my recollection, it was covered in pictures of Beverly Hills 90210 and NKOTB. How apt that both of these phenoms have been given a 2nd life this year (90210 redux premieres tonight, gasp!). This time around I am thinking a little more classy and practical and of course it has to encorporate some fairy lights.

The following have been inspiring me...

Now I just need to source some cork, ribbons, fabric and a staple gun. Should be easy.
