Cork Board Ideas

If you are looking for cork board ideas, then you have come to the right article. Having a cork board in your house can never be the wrong thing to do, after all.

Why? Because a cork board can help you track a lot of things in your life. You can turn it into a handy bulletin board that you can use to help remind you of your tasks.

Not only that, a cork board can also help you in ways that you first think to be impossible. Perhaps you can use it as a jewellery board to decorate your house.

It can even double as a tray if you lack the wall space to hang it. Blend them in with your table and it will make for a perfect tray for your glasses or even plates.

If not, why not be a bit creative and turn your cork board into a cabinet door? The strength provided by corkboards can definitely be a good door for your cabinet.

Lastly, you can turn cork boards (or the spare ones) into a restyled decoration of a sort. Cutting it into shapes and pin other decorations on them works well, too.

But what if you just want to use your cork board the ordinary way? What if you just want to find a way to make them beautiful instead of turning them into other things?

Then we have for you several cork board ideas that we think will serve you best. These ideas are simple to follow while providing you the best look.

Without further ado, let us start with the first of the ideas:

1. A white framed cork board is simple but effective

If simplicity is what you are looking for, then look no further from our very first idea.

This white framed cork board is there to provide you the best look without forcing you to spend a lot of your money and time.

Definitely one of the simpler cork board ideas, but the white frame means it will work with any color choice you have made for the walls.

2. The brown framed cork board is for those looking to pronounce themselves

If the colour white is too simple for you, then perhaps you can throw away the white paint and move on to this idea.

The very thought of combining the darker brown with the lighter shade that cork boards sport is enough to excite people.

The two colors complement each other, making it a good idea if you want things to be complex.

Works perfectly fine with white and its shades, but it will not play along with other colors.

3. Cork Board of Memories Board Ideas

Memories are what remind us of the past, anchoring us to reality and pushing us to go forward in life.

It is only fitting for us to keep them close, to arrange them in a way that reminded us of them.

This idea takes away the notion of cork board being a place to pin our schedules and responsibilities and turned it into a place where you can anchor yourself to the past.

A perfect idea for the nostalgic.

4. Embrace the schedules with this cork board ideas

One of the most popular usages for a cork board is as a place where you can pin the tasks that you need doing at the moment.

This idea basically takes that notion up to a notch and effectively turns your cork board into a monthly calendar.

You can also be very creative with it. Instead of writing any even or responsibilities like you would an ordinary calendar, use pictures and doodles.

5. Cork Board for Pinning Your Notes

Eye-opening september bulletin boards #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor
toca-ch.com

People are stuck to the mindset that every cork board idea must involve one big square-shaped cork board.

This idea breaks that way of thinking and uses three rectangular-shaped cork boards instead.

A combination of hooks, strings, and paper clips are all you need to implement this nice looking ‘paper hanger’ for your house.

If you see yourself as an unorthodox person, this idea is easy to do and is a very unique take on cork boards.

6. You can never go wrong with a modern cork board

This design is definitely something to talk about.

A golden framed cork board is not something that many folks thing can work. The color gold is too regal, very unsuitable for something as simple as a cork board.

In reality, it works wonderfully. Its white background makes for a perfect contrast to the gold frame.

The white also makes it very adaptable to many wall colors.

7. Skip the frames and embrace simplicity with this white cork board

Astonishing wine cork ideas #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor
avenuelifestyle.com

This idea takes adaptability to a whole new level, even much further than our first idea.

Putting white over white has never been a good thing to do as they will merge together and provide you no beauty at all.

The same cannot be said about a white cork board, however, as cork boards only serve as a base for the other wonderful colors above it.

With this idea, you embrace things in their simplest form.

8. X-patterned cork boards ideas

Brilliant picture board ideas #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor

Much like the scheduled cork board we have before, this idea includes a pattern in it, more specifically the X pattern.

On papers, the presence of the X pattern might ruin the clarity of your cork board.

When put to work, however, the X pattern only adds depth to the cork board, giving you the necessary break from the stale-looking plain board.

Even better if you can incorporate the X within the items being pinned unto your cork board.

9. Wall bulletin boards for office

If you want a more reserved look for your board (perhaps you want to use a cork board in your office), then you cannot go wrong by using this idea.

The very fact that this idea is a simple one definitely fits the perfect office life.

This will help you live up your routine, preventing it from getting stale in a moment’s notice.

If you are already tired of it, this idea is very easy to spice up as well.

10. Tiled cork boards make for a good office board

Spectacular school bulletin boards #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor
laurenalbanese.com

If tiles are more of your thing, then you should check this idea out because it involves tiles on your board.

It is a good idea to apply to your offices, both at home or outside.

We prefer it if you apply this at home, though. This idea can take a lot of space, after all, and there is no better space to take than your own house.

11. Incorporate layers in your board to save space

Marvelous november bulletin board ideas #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor

If you have already bought a small cork board and you wish to put a lot of things on it, then you should not be sad with your predicament.

Instead of being sad, why not apply this idea? Layering your pinned items is never a bad idea to try, and if you do it right, it will look good.

On the other hand, if you do it wrong, you will end up with a messy looking board.

12. Cork board office organization ideas

Unbelievable january bulletin board ideas #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor
glubdubs.com

Instead of getting a single cork board, why not spread your money around on five of them?

A single cork board can work wonders with your scheduling, but five of them would make things easier for you to get organized.

You can also be more creative with them, which is good if creativity is your strong suit.

Plus, five small cork boards are often cheaper than a single big one, so you are saving money by doing this.

13. Photo display cork board ideas

Breathtaking diy bulletin board #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor
ecodecomobiliario.com

The biggest of picture frames could only fit so many photos in it. Many of them are also expensive to boot.

That is why you can try buying a cork board instead of your ordinary photo frame. Turn your board into a board where you can pin your pictures on.

The photo hanged by the first row of pictures is also a very creative take on your wall pin method.

14. An owl makes for a cute companion for this board

We admit that we love simple things, hence the reason why we put so many simple looking boards on the list.

The next board we got is a bit more complex thanks to the addition of our cuckooing friends by the corner of the board.

The blue owl adds a complexity to the board, turning itself into a fine companion for your pinning duty.

The owl might hog a bit of space but is certainly not boring to look at.

15. A bulletin board? Why not?

Remarkable cork board tiles #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor
presentationgeeks.com

One of the ways you can use a cork board is to turn it into a bulletin board.

This idea does that perfectly well with the brown background and the metallic frame.

It gives you either a back-to-school look or an office environment look, which means it will work perfectly if you are still in school or if you are counting the numbers.

16. Chaotic calendar

Fantastic white cork board #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor
breakpr.com

The reason why we call this a chaotic calendar is the fact that it goes crazy with the decoration.

On top of the board you will notice alphabets strung together in a chaotic sense, with two different colors that oddly fit with each other.

The boxes below might seem a bit controlled, but turn to the right side and you will see that the decorations have taken control.

Good for children, who enjoy bringing chaos to things.

17. You can never go wrong with motives for your cork board

Especially in cork boards, in which creativity is needed if you want it to turn into a wonderful decoration.

While the ideas before are a bit more practical, this one is definitely much more artful with its presentation.

The popping colors indicate that this was never a practical idea, but we all need to get away from the practical things sometimes, yes?

18. Wood spools incorporated

Sensational classroom bulletin boards #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor
freshdesignpedia.com

Wood spools are not exactly beautiful on their own. They are colorful, but they do not make good decoration alone.

With cork boards, however, they can be turned into a decoration powerhouse. This idea above pretty much is all you need to see to know that.

Over the board’s white frame were wood spools of many different colors and sizes, a very creative idea considering that wood spools are rarely used as decorations.

19. Green and brown mix so well in this cork board ideas

Extraordinary framed bulletin boards #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor
dycap.co

Cork boards are known for their ‘earthy’ brown look, sharing the same color as your typical garden dirt (albeit lighter than the real dirt).

Combined with green plants, the dirt lost its ugliness and instead turned into a base in which beauty grows.

That is basically what happens in here. The light green can get overbearing at first, but the cork board itself serves as a contrast to the overly bright green.

Fits the old schoolers in you.

20. Cork board jewelry holder

Uplifting april bulletin board ideas #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor
agescimarche.it

We said that cork boards have many uses and that a jewellery holder is one of them. This idea basically gives a needed backing to that claim.

This simple idea will give you a frame in which you can store your jewellery in, all safe underneath the protecting glass.

Looks pretty tribal, but if embrace such life, it would not wrong for you to apply this in your living room.

Unbeatable march bulletin board ideas #corkboardideas #bulletinboardideas #walldecor

We, however, disagree with that notion. A child is very much chaotic, and the last place you want chaos to touch is a schedule board

This idea is very simple and is very organized, a fine way to teach your children how to be organized with their schedule.

23. Another tribal jewellery board storage

This is a tribal idea that can work nicely if you got some jewellery you want on display.

Instead of going with one board, go with three boards and spread your jewellery around to prevent overcrowding.

The metallic frame contrasts the earthy background very much, but contrasts are not always wrong.

Instead of avoiding contrasts, this idea embraces it and made it work to its benefit.

A tropical cork board is a rarity because they mostly do not look good. They might have good things going on the paper, but the implementation is often bad

You would not find such a failure with this.

The very thought of combining yellow tropical pattern and the color white is a very nice thought to have.
