She's So Tacky

I made a neat message board awhile ago by stapling my favorite fabric onto a piece of foam ceiling tile that we had removed from my office. You can really have fun making one of those. You can sew pockets to it or use several different fabric by sewing them together first. You can also wrap pieces of ribbon to it creating layers of bands to hold things with. The possibilities are endless. But why stop there? You can't add just any old thumb tack to it now! Jessica at How About Orange shows us step by step on how to make these sweet tacks.
(btw- I hung my message board by using Mr. Hubbies nail gun. the headless nails go right thru the fabric so you don't see a thing. prolly not so good with silk.....)
