my crafty hubby

We discovered quickly, after moving in together, that we needed a central place to post reminders, important docs, etc. Our kitchen is all torn up though, so whatever we came up with wasn't necessarily permanent. We found four plain, non-framed cork boards at Target, and hung two. Hung consisted of placing the included double sided tape on the back and hoping it stuck to the wall. It didn't. In fact, it fell so often that three broke. I tried more double sided tape. I tried thumbtacks. They wouldn't puncture our walls that are apparently made of steel. Chris took matter in his own hands, and the result is so adorable! He found a variety of buttons and nailed one into each corner. Except on the board with a broken corner. There he nailed TWO buttons so the broken edge stayed. Adorable. And, so easy!
