Frame Your Kids’ Art!

Original art…

 

Original art…

And yet more original art!

All for free!!!!!

If you have children, don’t spend money on a lot of art. Some of your kids’ original masterpieces can look quite stunning when nicely framed, or even displayed clothespinned to some string or wire as in the last photo. Plus, the kids are pleased.

(The string/wire display is a nice substitute for the refrigerator if you have a non-magnetic stainless steel one as we do)

Original kids art. All parents (and grandparents) probably have some of that. Nice choice.

Hope you are having a great weekend!

I love the frames you chose. And the clothesline idea is great: I use it at school but never thought of using it at home. My fridge is covered solid with souvenir magnets and postcards and stuff. I wish you could hang magnets on the clothesline!

And yes, it is me, meeyauw: I am finally using my real name. I have confused everybody.

I still have original artwork hanging from my kids who are now between 27 and 39 years old. Working still on grandchildren art. Hmm. I have some preschool art in the closet that, framed, might be an interesting Christmas gift for the artist. You have given me an original idea.
