Corkboard Walls

We have a refrigerator and a full size freezer next to each other in our kitchen, and like most parents our kids cover them in their artwork, hung with magnets just strong enough to fall off every time we open the fridge. We were wearing thin with picking up the magnets and artwork every time we went to pull out the milk.

We bought several rolls of cork at Hobby Lobby this last week, and today I pulled out the highly-toxic adhesive and plastered them to the walls in the hall (inhaling a few too many fumes in the process). Now the kids have plenty of space to hang their artwork right outside the doors to their rooms - and it doesn't have to be on the fridge.

  1. Yeah! So good to read your updates and way to go on the attempt at early mornings...been wanting to work on that myself. If I know there's other people out there trying and getting through the misery maybe I'll be more motivated??? :)

    Great idea for the corkboard on the walls! Very cool!
