Step 1
Dis-assemble the frame and discard the glass. 
Step 2
Lay the back of the frame on top of the cork foam board and trace with a pencil. 
Step 3
Use a craft knife and the cork foam board to size to fit inside the frame.
 
TIP: You will need to make several cuts in order to get through the thickness of the cork foam board. Place cardboard under the area in which you are cutting to protect your working surface.
Step 4
Discard the frame back and replace it with the cut cork foam board. Push it into place and, on the back side, use some packing tape to secure. 
Step 5
Use hot glue to attach the wood letter to the front of the cork. 
Step 6
Repeat for remaining frames.
