Use these to push push in your corkboard!!

Those Thumbtacks are to boring for my DIY corkboard. So I wanted to Spruce them up a bit. And remember, you don't have to use buttons and a binder clip like I do, use whatever you want to serve as your pushpin on your corkboard :)

Instructions

Project Cost: Almost Nothing

1

First you need the things that you want to glue on your plain flat head pushpins.
2

Cut the shank (the loop thingy) off with a pair of scissors or wire cutters. Here I use scissors because the button was made of plastic.
3

Then glue you thumbtack onto the button with hot glue. Make sure to enclose the pushpin with glue so it cannot come lose.
4

For the binder clip. Take your clip, your pushpin and your glue. And what do you get when you fuse all of that together?

A new multifuncional pushpin!! Hope you try this out, it's so simple and it really makes you corkboard look nicer :P
