I came across this idea on Pinterest and thought it was so cute! Every day the kids come home with art work and I don't have a place to display it all. I've made the mistake of throwing away some of my daughter's work only to have her dig it out of the garbage and ask me with such a sad face why I threw it away. Well here's the solution to my problem. Plus I love to find old treasures at yard sales and Goodwill so it was the perfect project for me. I gathered a bunch of frames in various shapes and sizes and removed the glass and picture. Then I spray painted them all the same color. Since they are going in the kids playroom I chose orange.
I then cut chicken wire to fit each frame and stapled it to the back. Since I wasn't sure if the wire would scratch the walls I covered it with duct tape.
Here's the finished product. It was an easy weekend project. The kids are so excited to have their artwork on display. The lamp in the picture was a fun art project I did with the kids. We took a plain lampshade and hot glued buttons on it. You can't see the from this picture but the playroom has polka dots on the walls so it went perfect with our theme.
