HEAT notice board


Materials: Nine HEAT trivers, thin bars of wood, two screw hooks

Description: I had needed a notice board for a long time but did not like the look of the most of I've seen on sale. One night I was just falling asleep when I got an idea: I'll make the notice board using the round IKEA trivets.

I bought three packets of HEAT-trivet, attached two hooks to wood bars I had lying around and hot-glued them to the back of the trivets. Done! It works and I love it!

  1. Ha! I did that too. But I only used 4 and I used 1 nail per trivet to place them on the wall.

  2. I never realized I had an IKEA hack in my house. I took them and just placed two nails about 3" long in top and bottom of the trivets so that I can put my morning reminders there so I don't forget anything!

  5. The concept I found someway different! I have used till date the white boards however the one you have used looks very presentable and different. Thanks for the share!
