Back in gainesville, I made my first 8 foot bulletin board out of some material I found at Lowes. I painted the board a really pretty sky blueish turquoise, but I don't think I have a single picture of it.
In Charleston, I did the same thing, but I made a square out of a piece of material at Lowes and painted it white. (note the countdown til gainesville at the bottom, the satchel's pizza sticker, some crappy band stickers, and the Fest V koozie)
I recycled this board and painted it pea green for my office:
