2. Geometric Washi Tape & Cork Board Hexagons

Loose paper clips, sticky notes, and loose reminders often clutter the main desk surface. Hexagonal cork tiles bring geometric style to empty wall space while keeping essential notes visible.

  • Materials: Mini cork board hexagons, assorted washi tapes, acrylic paint, painter’s tape, and wall-safe adhesive strips.
  • How to Make:
    1. Section off portions of each hexagon using painter’s tape to create color-blocked patterns.
    2. Paint half of each tile with muted earthy tones, leaving the natural cork exposed on the other half.
    3. Wrap decorative washi tape along the outer borders for crisp borders and subtle patterns.
    4. Mount them above your desk in a honeycomb layout using adhesive strips.
  • Styling Tip: Use cute wooden pushpins to hang school schedules, motivational quotes, flashcards, and lightweight binder clips.
