i don’t know if you are like me, but i shudder every time i start to think about cleaning out the artwork my son brings home from preschool. i am so excited about every single piece, that in my mind they are all mini picassos and pollacks, and how dare i recycle/trash these wonderful masterpieces! i mean, who else can scribble like that? the gods?
anyway, i’ve come up with a few cute ways to display his art throughout the house, like in our tv room above the blinds-

hanging above the window
framed artwork with our liquor collection…yes, i know it’s on the edge of inappropriate-

a masterwork and maker's mark
and on a former window in his bedroom, turned into a bulletin board by my fabulously handy husband-

the bulletin board of fame
i also found a little website called a craft life, and she had some great suggestions for art storage . small notebook , a wonderful place with tips to simplify every thing in your life, had some great advice and more links to other blogs on organizing and displaying children’s art. her key deciding factor in what she kept and didn’t keep? she kept the ones that made her smile the most. great idea!
so what storage solutions have worked for you? send me an idea and we’ll try it out…thanks!
