I am going to teach a class called live with purpose and intent. This is going to be a vision board class. I need to figure out how to supply a board 2'x3' or larger, that is light enough to carry and thumb tacks, pins, etc can poke into the board. I want it paintable, maybe covered with fabric or wallpaper, etc. I want to give the students a choice. The board will be covered with pictures out of magazines, scrapbook paper with sayings, photos, tickets, etc. I have a plea out on Facebook, but have not come up with an idea. Ideas anyone? |

how about a folding quilt board, simple, light weight and cheap, it would be paintable, and you could add fabric by useing spray adhesive...

I will look up what a quilt board looks like. I just may work. Can I buy these at Walmart, Joann's, or Hobby Lobby? |

Kem, I used foam board, covered with fabric to make a bulletin board for my glamper trailer. Very lightweight and you can use pushpins, etc. in it. You could probably paint it as well. I got the pieces at Walmart. I don't remember the size . . . I cut it to fit in a particular spot in the trailer. I used Alleene's Tacky White glue brushed on to glue on the fabric. CJ

How thick is foam board ceejay? I guess I could double it if needed. That is a really good solution. I am going to try it. I may use a big ornate frame for the border. |
