    Hi just wondering if anybody knows where I can buy a huge noticeboard to display pictures, posters etc... I don't really want to ruin my walls so looking for a board

    I know shops like wilkinsons have them but they're quite small

    I have a large magnetic white board from Staples. You can buy some sizes on line but their price was cheaper at the time of purchase.

    I bought mine a couple of years ago from Amazon, for a really good price. They've lasted well & I love them for displays etc.

    I cleared all the children's work off over the christmas hols & put our family christmas cards on them!

    I think this is mine

    Thanks for the link Mouse, have got a plasterer coming in tomorrow to replaster my porch walls - up til now I have just used bluetac to put up displays of childrens work and have a small cork board with parents info on. I was wondering where I could get a large board from - can I ask do you use drawing pins or the pins they recommend as I am worried about them coming out of board and mindees eating them or standing on them?

    I use both drawing pins & push pins. I also use my staple gun to stick things on - any excuse to be let loose with a staple gun

    The board is high enough that mindees can't get to the pins & I've never had any fall out. I do have a smaller notice board at a lower level & attach things to that with velcro. I stick the sharper side of the velcro to the back of laminated pictures, names etc and mindees can move them round on the board as they want
