Nothing is sweeter than seeing your child create a masterpiece, and handing it over to you so proud and accomplished!

My son draws me pictures all the time, and I just wish I could keep them ALL! It’s something I truly struggle with as a mom raising a family in a small home.

There just ain’t enough walls for my babies’ creations.

Below are a variety of ways to display your child’s amazing artwork in a fun, creative and clutter-free way!

1. Kids Artwork Gallery

This is a quick and simple way to display your kid’s artwork! Use cheap frames or used frames to add your kid’s art right into the frame.

I love that this gives your kids options to rotate the art on display, so it doesn’t pile up. Find old frames at yard sales or thrift stores and paint them up, to make them look like new!

What a fun way to make a display to hang your child’s art!

They use a cabinet door, paint it up, attach a clip and you can easily display your art!

Even better if you have old cabinet doors laying around from a recent renovation project!

Then hung them on the wall, and placed a clip inside to hang the art! I love this idea!

  1. Hi Emma! I appreciate all the display ideas, to keep the spaces clutter free. My daughter, 2 grandbabies, and I all live in about 600 sq. feet. It is tiny!! But they love to create! And I love to see their ideas!
