My D.I.Y Notice Board

I'm lazy and it's no secret.

After choosing the piece of fabric for my notice board and wrapped up the Styrofoam board, I just left it aside and continue doing other unproductive things... Heh, procrastinator I am.

And so yesterday, out of the blue I picked it up and continued my unfinished job.. (so that I can blog about it and show off and get admiring comments to you guys).

To be honest, all that I did for my notice board was drawing a kindergarten's level cacat but cute little girl (me kah?) and laminated it on a piece of A3 paper.

For what? Kekekekekeee.. For my karit-ness (frugality).

(Self-portrait?)

I laminated my drawing and transformed it into a wipe-off board.

Yes, it is possible to do so. As long as you're using a non-permanent marker pen, the ink will come off easily.

SAVE OUR TREES!
(Use recyclable wipe-off board instead of post-it notes!)

I did thought of making it to a magnetic board so that I can use magnets instead of thumb tacks and push pins by using magnetic pad (available in all stationery shops. Wuuu! I love shopping for stationeries!).

But, I felt that it's too heavy to hang on the wall. And.. pins come cheaper than magnets. =p

Atul suggested that I could put ribbons and checkered diagonally for my board but I thought it was a bit too messy and.. again, I malas and have no patience to properly align ribbons by ribbons.

I tried to get inspirations on how to make my board pretty and so I searched the net... But, none that I felt it's my style.

And so I just took the photos, papers, stickers and ribbons (not that I'll use all of them of course) out and simply placed them randomly on it.. till I thought of something.

Completed it within 2.5 hrs.

(Pieces of it)

As you can see from the above photo, there's photos that I like, a breast cancer awareness ribbon (easier to twist and pin it than tying a bow isn't it? Promote breast cancer awareness also mah), and the words "king's messag3".

Ya ya ya.. I know I mentioned before I hate youngster's way of typing words.. example: using "3" to substitute "e", "5" for "s" and combinations of caps and small letters, and so why am I doing it myself?

The reason... I ran out of the letter "e" thickers. Same reason for putting "king" instead of "nonnie", not enough letter "n". =/

Can you picture how my notice board looks like already?

Hmm... let me do the dot dot dot thingie to ask you to scroll down and down.. Kekekkee.

Ready?

But I'm afraid that you all won't have the patience to play the scrolling game lah.... How?

Gah, forget it.

Here it is.. the picture of it.

Too simple? Empty? Ugly? Stupid?

Nevermind, this is only the beta version. Who knows later I'll release Nonnie's DIY notice board version 1.1, 2.1 ... till windows live notice board. =D

Siao..


Suggestions or comments for my work anyone?
