Geek-Theme Memo Board
It’s been a while since I shared one of my own projects, so I thought I’d share my most recent geekcraft – a Geek Memo Board.
Using this tutorial for How to Make a French Memo Board, I wrapped an 18×24 canvas with batting and fabric and stapled it to the frame, and added ribbon and buttons. Knowing most of my memorabilia was space-themed, I used this fun fabric from Jo-Ann that had a blue swirly background with little stars.
Once I had the board all assembled (it took maybe an hour), I added my geek fandom references:
- Spock-Han-Mal meme
- Battlestar Galactica propaganda print
- TARDIS a la Starry Night
- Keep Calm and Aim to Misbehave (Firefly reference)
- Fighting Imps (Game of Thrones reference)
- Spock Monkey (the image I have is a greeting card, but there are instructions on how to make one in my Star Trek Crafts book!)
I have this memo board on my desk at work where I can gaze upon its geeky loveliness often. What geeky homages do you have at your desk/cube at work or home office?

I made a Spock Monkey for my mom for her birthday, she loved it! :)
I’ve made a couple of Spock Monkeys too – fun project! Glad to hear yours met with success too!
