Displaying Children’s Artwork

There is alot of “Art” done at our house, and that means lots of kids, who want their work displayed proudly through out the house. No problem there, but I’m getting a bit tired of how our house looks with a bunch of crooked pieces of paper taped to the wall…..it all looks just a bit unorganized and messy…..even though the artwork is “the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen”

That’s when I saw this “Fine Art Gallery” and knew I had to make something similar. My version is not as fancy, we wen’t dollar store style for a little more color, but I think the result is just as fantastic!

First I picked out a bunch of frames at goodwill, and spray painted them all black using “Rustoleum Black Flat”:

I saved the larger frame for the “sign” and used some wall sticks from the Dollar Tree:

Then I took a black sharpie marker and wen’t around our last name to darken it up a bit….I would have done this for all the words, but I’m kinda lazy like that:

Then I arranged the frames on the wall under our new gallery sign:

Finally adding in the children’s artwork with a push pin so we can easily swap out the pieces as we want!

There is lots more room on this wall, so we might be adding more “artists” to our collection shortly!
