After carefully cutting the cork board, I used it as a loose template for the fabric. Just make sure there is a little extra on each side so the fabric will cover the edges as well as the front of the cork board.
I used a glue gun to attach each edge of fabric to the corkboard. I did try to just pull the edges around without attaching it, but the fabric got way too loose and did not look as good. However, I did try small edges and larger edges and either one works pretty well. On the green fabric (larger edges), I still used hot glue, but I did not need nearly as much!
After finishing all of these frames, I tried to figure out what I was going to do with all of these extra glass fronts. I decided to make one more frame and use this one as a dry erase board. It can serve as a little place to add last minute reminders or for a favorite quote!
I would use these for displaying things in my classroom.
Oh gosh I would use the dry erase frame for daily reminders…I am always leaving myself notes! This is so cute
I would use these for reminders of the things I need to complete before the kiddos get there in the morning!
I would hang it by my desk to put important notes on
The paper choices are beautiful. I would use the frame or board for making my list of positive phone calls home.

Hang it inside my door with the Command Velcro strips and tack up posters, notices, notes, etc. that come from the office while I teach (nothing private of course). That way I can continue to teach and post the information more permanently when I have time without losing them on my podium or desk!!!
These would be great for reminders or recognizing good behavior.
I would use these for reminders.
I would keep it on my desk to put reminder notes on-so cute!
These would be great to put by my desk to put on my reminders on. I’m always forgetting things.
I would use the dry erase board for reminder notes for the class or myself! I would use the cork board to pin up cute notes my first graders write me. I could also use it for pinning up photos of my students!

I would use these boards for reminder notes for myself and/or my husband. We both need notes to remind us of what we need to work on classroom wise with our son, and this would be the perfect thing to help us out!
Dry erase for notes! I need post it notes on my head, so this would be perfect 🙂

I would use them for notes or to showcase students for their work.
Great idea! Thanks for the swell directions too just incase I don’t win!

These are adorable! I would totally use them in my classroom for reminders, a hot word of the day or as an announcement. The cork boards would be really cute to post a picture or a tweet or a sweet note for either myself or for the students. I could post the best tweet for a week or something!
