In the summer we plan to take our Friday nights with a lick of salt, a slice of lime and a shot of tequila. The thought makes our lips pucker with excitement.
So, why not take our cork boards with a hint of color, a slice of lime and a cute photo?
Our classic black and white pushpins recently got a makeover into DIY lemon and lime pushpins. The mini slices add cheer to our workspace, and keep us dreaming of our favorite Rio Grande margaritas.
Materials Needed:
- Mini Cork Door Discs {with adhesive backing} from Home Depot. You can also use flat white pushpins {non-cork}.
- Acrylic paint {white, lime green, yellow}
- Pushpins
- Pencil
- Sealer, such as Shellac
Directions:
- Paint the mini cork discs white.
- When the white paint dries, use a pencil to freehand mini triangles in a circle around the center of the disc.
- Paint the outer ring green/yellow, then paint the triangles green/yellow.
- Once the paint dries, spray paint with a sealer, like Shellac.
- Stick to the pushpins. The adhesive on the back should be sufficient, but if not, a hot glue gun with work.
