Bulletin Board Hints

Backgrounds
Butcher paper is the traditional background for a bulletin board. Consider investing in fadeless butcher paper if you do not want to invest the time to change the background paper throughout the school year. Or consider some of these other creative alternatives to bulletin board backgrounds.
Use contact paper, wrapping paper, or wallpaper for patterned backgrounds.
Cover your bulletin board with other types of paper such as newspaper, maps, a patchwork pattern of construction paper, old pages from calendars, and printed paper.
Sheets and fabric can cover a background, as well. Make a patchwork board by gluing sections with different patterns and materials.
Attach chicken wire to the bulletin board. Items can be hooked on rather than pinned.
Art tissue, colored cellophane, construction paper, butcher paper, or sand paper can be coverings for a bulleting board background.
Hang netting across the bulletin board. Clip items to the net with clasp clothespins.
