Craft Tutorial: Charming Corkboard Wall Pocket
Today’s feature is from Craft Apple with a tutorial on How To Make a Corkboard Wall Pocket:
Materials Needed:
- 12″x12″ piece of 1/4″ corkboard tile (available in office supplies at Target for around $4/4-pack, or art-supply stores for around $10/4-pack)
- 11 3/4″ x 11″ cardboard piece (I cut mine from an old box)
- 11 1/2″ x 11 1/2″ piece of iron-on adhesive, fusible webbing (I use HeatNBond Lite)
- 2 fat quarters of coordinating fabric for background, and pocket
- Fabric for backing (I used some that I regretted buying)
- 3+ ft of coordinating grosgrain ribbon
- 6″x12″ piece of interlining
There are a few steps involved, but nothing too crazy. Pretty much just straight seams and pressing.
The only thing I’m a little iffy about is using my sewing machine to sew through corkboard (only needed for the top binding). If that concerns you too or your machine can’t handle it, it can be done by hand (it’s just along the top).
Finished item is simple and clean, yet pretty! Please visit the site above for the complete project instructions.
