cork display boards and how i transformed them for my studio

after reading the cork board story on houzz attached as a gadget i decided to share an idea i used for my studio wall work space

i bought some cork in a roll and some vintage frames from <a href="http://www.bdantiques.com/">big daddy</a>'s in la and at the pasadena rose bowl and i also went through my vintage textile remnants and picked some discontinued fabrics swatches that i liked and that fit into the frames

used a mix of vintage remnants of textiles tacked down with glue mounted over some cork
bought cables and hooks from systematic art so i could adjust and move them around


on their site i also really liked mixing in some acrylic picture holders and they keep pictures from curling
they look really cool empty or full of tacked on images

they look great all mixed up and i plan to keep on adding so the whole wall will be full
