Maya*made got some coffee bean sacks from her local coffee roaster (for FREE! they have a ton of these and were glad to get rid of them. Score! Do the same at your local roaster!) and covered a garage saled bulletin board with it for some instant coffeehouse chic in her office.

Instructions at the maya*made blog.

Materials needed:
coffee sack (FREE)
bulletin board (they sell small ones or tiles at the dollar store)

Tools:
staple gun
scissors

Estimated cost: $3 or so

    how do you find a coffee roaster? would supermarkets and coffee shops also have these?

    @nataluna, I’d look in your yellow pages for local coffee roasters, to start with. You’ll probably have to do a bit of detective work to find them.

    @nataluna. There are a lot of vendors that sell coffee roasters out there. More than you could plssibly imagine. If you google coffee roasters you will find thousands. My wife and I own a shop and we bought a small 3 1b roaster for about $500. You can get a variety of smaller roasters for cheaper. You can even get bins that will roast on your backyard grill.
