1
Decide on how big you want your bulletin board to be. You might want to measure the available space with a tape measure to make sure you don't build too big a board.

2
Lay cork panels on top of a thin wooden board so that they make a rectangle of the correct dimensions. You may have to trim off the edges of the cork board, too. If the cork panels are slightly too big, use a craft knife to trim off any extra cork.

Use a pencil to trace the shape of the bulletin board onto the wooden board. Remove the cork panels, and saw the wooden board into that shape.
-
4
Place the cork panels onto the board and arrange them so they are lined up perfectly. One at a time, remove the panels, spread glue on them, and glue them down on the board.

5
Attach the bulletin board to the wall. A good way to do this is to stick double-sided mounting tape (see Resources) around the perimeter of the wooden board, then placing it on the wall. Mounting tape can damage paint in some cases, but it will not leave holes in the wall as nails can do.
