DIY Emoji Cork Boards (IKEA Hack!)

Can we all agree that emojis are amazing?

I mean, I use the heart eye emoji at least five times a day. Too much?

To celebrate emojis, one of the greatest gifts technology has given us in the past five years, I’m showing you how to make these simple DIY emoji cork boards! Double whammy – this is also an IKEA hack! I actually picked up these round cork trivets from IKEA a long, long time ago and decided to repurpose them because I rarely ever used them as trivets. With some good ‘ol command strips, I quickly turned them into small cork boards for above my desk space.

This is super easy, and shouldn’t take you very long (just gotta wait for them to dry in between). I created three different ones – heart eyes, happy crying and the weird teeth smiling one. Yeah, those are totally the technical names for them, obviously…and here’s how to make them!

Time: 30 minutes

Supplies:

  • Round cork boards
  • Bright yellow paint
  • Black paint
  • Red, blue, white or various colors of paint
  • Paint brushes
  • Command strips (optional, for hanging)

How to:

  1. Paint the entire cork board yellow and let dry (make sure to paint the sides too) and then paint a second coat if needed. I needed two coats.
  2. Outline the facial features with a pencil (or just go for it if you want!) and fill in with the appropriate paint colors. For any overlapping colors, make sure the bottom color is completely dry before painting over it.
  3. Let the paint dry completely and touch up if necessary.
  4. Attach Command strips to the backs and stick on your wall!

I’m so happy with how they turned out. They add a lot of personality to my little work corner, and I can easily move them if I want thanks to the Command strips!

WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk abou WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk about the new pins in the shop...but they SOLD OUT in 12 hours instead 😭🙏 Andrew and I are so overwhelmed with the love of the #FIPWarriors community. Thank you to anyone who's purchased a pin to support Milo's treatment! We're so close to the end now! One more batch of pins coming up soon 😽
What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas decorations?! 😭 Half our neighbors already took down their Christmas lights, so I guess the only goal is to not be the LAST one with lights up. How long do you keep up your decorations?
Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holi Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holiday card before it's a week til Christmas, so we can actually send one 🤪 When we get Christmas cards, I always feel like a little kid getting mail again! Do you send a holiday card??⁠
⁠
(Grab this DIY card holder in the blog archives! 👉)
More product is coming soon! 🎉 I'm honestly SHO More product is coming soon! 🎉 I'm honestly SHOCKED to see Milo's pins sell out so quickly. We made 50 with the expectation that we wouldn't sell very many, but I just put in an order for more inventory! 😭⁠
⁠
This time we'll be selling black and white cat "FIP Warrior" pins to help raise money for Milo's treatment. Stay tuned - a pre-sale is coming! Pins will ship again in early January. In the meantime, there's plenty of other products available in the shop! (Visit my @etsy via the link in my bio)
NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your su NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your support of Milo while he goes through FIP treatment! I designed a new enamel pin to help us raise the funds to pay for Milo's treatment...THEN we sold almost all of the pins in just in a few hours! I'm so thankful and in shock of the generosity of our FIP community 😭⁠
⁠
There are a few left and more on the way, so you can SHOP NOW on @etsy and here on IG!! If you want a pin and they are sold out, please tag yourself below! Visit the link in my bio to purchase 🛍⁠
⁠
"FIP Warrior" is the name we give to cats fighting FIP and the humans who help them, bringing awareness to the disease and possible treatments. Our Warrior Milo is almost halfway through his treatment and we couldn't be more grateful to see him getting better! Every purchase from my shop helps us to pay for his expensive treatments and is so, so appreciated 🙏🏼
🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since 🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since my last post (oops!) but I had to fit in my one obligatory fall photo before I dive straight into Christmas! If you caught my Stories recently, you may have already seen why I've been so absent...⁠
⁠
Last month, our sweet Milo was diagnosed with a disease called feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). It's very serious and has required our full attention to give him daily injections that should help him recover. The treatment is 84+ days long and has taken a huge emotional toll on us. You can learn more about Milo's FIP story in my profile Highlights!⁠
⁠
Long story short: I've been too emotionally drained from Milo's treatment, my regular work and the crazy world around us to even think about social media 😣 I truly don't know how you fellow creators do it! Hopefully the cheerfulness of Christmastime gives me the urge to create again! (📸 cookies made for a project with @spectrumorganic)
