Really. We've made the most beautiful bulletin board and I want you to have one too. It all began with some sort of styrofoam stuff that comes in sheets at the building supply place. I don't know what they use it for but maybe for insulation beneath sheetrock (drywall) or bricks. Something. Easy to cut. Somewhat sturdy. We covered mine with the fabric from the curtains used to protect my shelves and bins of stash and other good stuff. Used a quick easy mount of a cool glue gun. The plaid fabric was about 3/4" off grain and annoying but not impossible. Now all the tiny little things are easy to find and safely stored: some velcro dots, double pointed needles, double eyed needles, needle threaders, hugs to be, a small bottle of silicone and an embroidered appliqué of a Cardinal. It goes on and on but an important part of being seriously organized is being able to find things. I can't believe how quickly this project went. Anybody need a couple of dozen cool glue sticks?
