Think about all that great artwork you have collected from when they were very young. Now is a wonderful opportunity to go through the collection stored in the cupboard and find a way to display the art. Your children will feel inspired that you want to show off their talents and you will have a unique piece of artwork at a low cost. Here we have x3 ideas for creating an art wall at home.
Choose a nice blank space to hang your picture hooks, measuring carefully to ensure that the picture hooks are centered and level. If you don't want to use nails then you can use command strips instead. You will need to attach two picture hooks parralel to one another to hang the raffia or string from.
Attach a piece of raffia or string between the two picture hooks, keeping the string tight. Knot well to secure.
The fun part! Curate you kids' work with their help, using the mini pegs to attach each piece o the string. You could add more than one level and utilise a mantelpiece to prop up any three-dimensional artworks.
You could use a whiteboard and magnets to create a more temporary artwork space. Prop it up against a wall and use the magnets to switch up the artwork on display regularly.
