Back in January I posted the IKEA Hack I did with the my UNG Drill Frame. See the post here. Well I realized that every time I wanted to change out the pictures in my frame I had to take off the back, remove the taped pictures, and tape new ones in there. So I came up with a time-saving solution: I would turn my frame into a cork board! I shopped around for a roll of cork. After comparing reviews and…
We love coasters in this house. Britta is kind-of a coaster freak, she never lets me put my glass on the table. If I’m going to use coasters, they might as well be cute!

So IKEA tends to stick…
