Fancy Corkboard recycled from an old corkboard

Fancy Corkboard recycled from an old corkboard
I have an old corkboard that's too big for my corner office. Instead of chucking it out, why not recycle and turn it to (drumroll) a CORKBOARD!

If you spray paint it purple and add a stem it's a grape corkboard! Even fancier :)

What kind of saw did you use to cut the branches?

 Interesting, so you just sort of held the branch down with one hand, and then cut the branch with the other?

 Great use of old trees, I love how the cut bits of branch add a bit more dimension, and the different sections can sorta be used to organise things a little.

this is really cool, a friend of mine is from Africa (moved here when he was 6) so I thought making it into the shape of africa would be really cool. I also, like gmjhowe said, love the depth from the branch thicknesses. Great Instrucatable :)
