10 Easy and Inspirational Bulletin Board Ideas

Bulletin boards are such an easy way to keep your room fresh, or add something new throughout the year! I love mix ‘n matching across collections, lending to the “use what you have” philosophy! Typically with bulletin boards I love to incorporate three features: 3-4 borders, fancy fans, and sometimes a garland. Meanwhile the content featured on the board can stay the same (sound wall, word wall, calendar, etc.), or change seasonally – whatever you are feeling/needing!

Flying into Monday with 10 easy and inspirational bulletin board ideas headed your way! I know teachers are well into their school year! Themes have been chosen. Students have each found a special place in your hearts. And you are probably knee deep in lesson planning, assessing, creating, and parent-teacher conferences – all the things!

Bulletin boards are such an easy way to keep your room fresh, or add something new throughout the year! I love mix ‘n matching across collections, lending to the “use what you have” philosophy!
