Heather over at Dollar Store Crafts posts awesome crafts that are created by things from the dollar store. Other then being a fantastic idea in general, I was inspired. Check out my version of the bungee cord bulletin board. It’s for my 7 year old son, his room is currently being decorated for the school year! Or rather, it’s being fixed up for him to enjoy.

After the picture was taken, I moved the red cord to be vertical. There is a larger empty space between the blue and red vertical cords now.

What I used:

thumbtacks (I had a box in my office supplies)
mini bungee cords – pack of 5 for $1 at the Dollar Tree
bulletin board – purchased by his Grandma, I’m sure it was part of a back to school sale.

This is such a simple way to make the bulletin board just a bit more fun looking!
