Photo: Paper and Stitch

When Tropical Storm Faye hit Florida last week, Brittni of Paper and Stitch was stuck at home with a lot of time on her hands. Feeling creative, she made herself a bulletin board to hang old family photographs using a piece of cardboard and a roll of woodgrain contact paper. Thirty minutes later and... voila! A fabulous faux bois (fake wood) photo board. Learn how she did it here.
