Materials

Recycled wine corks

Instructions
Paint the frame with gel stain or paint if desired.
Arrange the corks in a pattern to fit the frame. If they don't fit exactly try adding some wood trim, or other filler on the outside edges. You could also cut the cork to fit.
Place a line of hot glue on the back of each cork and set them in place.
Hang and place post-it notes or pin important notes to the corks.
Notes
You can use different frames for this project. I used about 105 corks for my frame but the number will depend on the frame you are using.I used a gel stain to cover the unfinished wood of my frame but you could leave it natural or paint it.You can use any kind of pattern you like with the corks, however, it's a good idea to place them all inside the frame first before gluing to see how they fit.
