    DIY Bulletin Board Gone Wrong

    I made these HUGE bulletin board on my wall in the daycare room. I got the idea from pinterest and made them just as stated. I used 1/2 thick piece of insulation board, kind of like Styrofoam. It was covered in nylon fabric to finish it off....

    Well it looks great, but now the issue is that I can't find anything that will hold in the stuff I want to hang.

    Staples will fall right out, and I don't want to use pushpins, although I think those would fall out too.

    I did find these rather lager T-pins, but I don't want to use them either. Too dangerous.

    Any advice or ideas??????

    Thanks so much

    What about some of that tacky stuff? The blue putty. I'm explaining it weird.

    Would that make a mess with the fabric you used to cover it?

          Yes, thats it!

          I did an art work "bulletin board" where I just stapled borders onto the wall and then used that stuff to hang up their art work. I don't know if it would be nylon friendly though..

            Or, maybe you could hot glue some clothes pins onto the board and then you can just hang your papers from those.

              you must be a fly on the wall..

              I actually used some really strong pins to hold on some cute ribbon, its pretty thick. I then used clothes pins to hang everything up, but you can't really make a cute bulletin board that way. It just now really holds everyone master pieces, which I guess is fine
