Martha Stewart Living, February 2001
Mounted at eye level above a desk, clothespins on an unobtrusive strip hold home-office essentials: correspondence, a calendar, and whatever is relevant at the moment. Drill a mounting hole in each end of a 24-inch length of 2-inch-wide lattice. With wood glue, attach seven wooden spring clothespins in an up-and-down sequence, letting the springs overhang the board. Spray-paint the whole thing, and attach to the wall using the appropriate anchors (use a washer between screw head and board).


This will be great for my daughter's room so she can hang up her artwork and painted papers that are drying. I don't want to give her a cork board because then there will be tacks on the floor. This is a safe alternative.
I did this with a longer strip in my boy's room years ago. Painted it to match his current decor, and voila; their own private art gallery! It was easy and inexpensive and when they outgrew it a few years later it was easy to remove and only a few tiny holes to spackle and paint!
muy facil, y bello!!!yo lo hare
lovely...and perfect!
beautiful in its simplicity
YES! Why didn't I think of this?
