    I didn't attach mine, I just leaned them side by side up against the wall, put the LARGE flannel piece over both of them. I did have to cut some off to have them fit in the basement as my ceilings are only 7 ft. high.

    I had a lot of really heavy duty wide velcro, which I attached to the wall with staples, and then attached the matching pieces to the boards and hung them up. I used 3 strips, 2 inches wide each. So far it's stayed up--about a year, so I don't think it will fall. :-)

    I did this. It is sturdy enough to hold a king size quilt and I don't have to worry about it falling over. I don't take it anywhere so it is perfect for me.

    I just used a couple thumb tacks on a 5'xWOF piece of flannel.

    I covered mine in flannel - then used a curtain rod attached to wall - made loops from material - attached loops to
    core board - put loops on curtain rod - and hung it. works great! You can use the whole core board or cut it to size you want. several people who have seen it have made them.
    oh I put mind on the wall side ways - rectangle - fits behind my desk and chair - so I can turn and mix & match
    blocks etc.
    Have a great day!

    I covered mine with felt, and my husband screwed it onto the wall. Works just beautifully!
