I've always wanted to decorate the small portion of the wall above my study table, not in a fancy or extravaganza way but the way I like it to be; simple. Decorating wall with photographs is just too mainstream, plus I get to see my friends and boyf most of the time so no point of putting up their photographs on my wall.
|
So this is how the wall initially look like -- a total crap I know HAHA but I couldn't find a better way to keep all the love notes and birthday cards my lovelies gave me and the movie tickets as well. Plus, I don't like my wall being empty. |
Everytime someone visited my room, the first thing they noticed would be my wall of
famemess! I would defend myself and tell them it's creative okay :P #indenial So on one fine day, I was in Daiso with the lovelies and I found out that they sell corkboard! I always wanted one to put on my wall but those sold in bookstores are kinda pricey. I quickly grabbed two and got myself some colourful push pins, I'm a sucker for cute stuff. They even have those mini pegs with heartshapes too, but I have no idea how can I utilize them.
Thus, going to Daiso too often is not a good thing, I will enter happily but leaving with a hole in my purse :P I always have to remind myself to stay far away whenever there's a Daiso in the shopping mall. It does work but not most of the time #facepalm
|
Total damage for my DIY wall decoration = Less than RM20! Got that string from Popular for RM2 if I'm not mistaken. |
|
The pushpins from Daiso, bought two boxes and split it with Elin #smartconsumers |
|
Pastel coloured and heartshapes pushpins, cute right?(^ω^) |
|
Before I start my mini project, I have to take down all those stuff and clean the wall with a wet cloth. |
|
Thank God for English instructions! :P |
|
There are small hooks that comes along with the corkboard, so that you can hang it up to the wall. |
|
But I didn't hang the two corkboards up actually, I had to use double tape between and behind the cork board to secure them on the wall HAHAHA #cheatone The string and the hook are just for decoration purpose HEH |
|
An after pic(!) that still looks messy. Just so you know, I have the habit of collecting clothes tag as well so I make use of all the space on corkboard and filled it up with everything I have. I even make good use of the hook up there to hang the clothes tag from Whitesoot :P Come to think of it, maybe I should print out my family photo and put it up so that it will motivate me to study harder #justsaying |

So, what do you think? (; |

Cute! If I ever enter Daiso, I make sure I spend at least 15 minutes inside looking at things I've already seen and probably wouldn't buy. Not sure why I must see again!
I think it looks great. I need one of those, may 2 or 3 in fact. My rooms messy so this board could probably hold all my important stuffs :)
