31 Home Projects for This Spring That Cost Under $30

9. Fabric-Covered Corkboard

You can give a plain IKEA corkboard — or any framed corkboard — an adorable upgrade by covering it with a patterned fabric. Pop the cork out of the frame, if possible, then wrap a piece of the fabric around the front of the cork sheet. Set the fabric-covered cork back into the frame, then outline the fabric with decorative tacks.

If the fabric won’t fit around the cork or the cork cannot be removed from the frame, simply fold the fabric around each edge to create a neat false hem, ironing the fabric. Tack the perimeter of the taut fabric to the corkboard.

The total estimated cost for a fabric-covered corkboard is $29.33 or less depending on fabric cost. Here’s what you’ll need:

IKEA Vaggis Noticeboard: $5.99
One yard of fabric: Up to $21.99
Package of steel tacks: $1.35
