Large bulletin board wall for your desk
If your desk is pushed against a wall or in a corner, having a big cork board right in front of you can look nice and be useful at the same time. Making one is not at all difficult. First of all, this requires a few supplies such as a MDF board, some paint for the MDF, cork foam boards, spray adhesive, some screws and possibly also some underlayment boards.

Floor-to-ceiling cork board wall
This doesn’t suit all types of spaces but it can definitely look nice in an area with a fairly low ceiling or with slanted walls. The idea is to cover a wall section with cork board sheets from top to bottom and to create this big display area for things like favorite decorations, kids’ artwork, notes and so on. This can fit nicely in a home office but also in a kitchen or a hallway. For a tutorial, head over to chrissymarieblog.
