IKEA Hack: Personalized Rusch Clock

From this...
...to this!

Five easy steps!
Disassemble.
Spray paint.
Cut out new clock face.
Paint clock hands.
Reassemble.
Done!


*Please ignore the fact that the clock face in the picture below is yellow... I originally thought spray painting it would be nice, but the color turned out like mac & cheese... hoops.

IKEA Hack: Fabric Covered Cork Board Tutorial

Ever been to IKEA? Ever visited the IKEA Hackers site? Well, here's my hack. I bought three cork heat boards that I turned into fabric covered cork boards & you can too. Fully functional & pretty, not to mention super easy!

You'll need a hot glue gun, scissors, fabric, cork & a pen or fabric marker.

 Trace around the cork leaving about an inch of room all the way around.

Plug the hot glue gun in and allow it to warm up. Cut fabric. Turn upside down and place the cork on the fabric. Spread a strip of glue along the edge of the cork. Pull fabric up and smoosh onto the glue with your fingers.

This is what it will start to look like. Continue all the way around.

Here's the completed cork.

Repeat with the second one.

And the third.

I used my favorite secret weapon to hang these puppies: 3M Command Strips.






This whole craft cost me little over $3! They look great as wall art as well! Have a great day!
