I’ve got two artistic kiddos who are quite prolific in the art they create. Almost every day they bring home piles of art from school, and then make even more before bedtime. I love it, of course. How could I not, I’m their mom. But I’m always trying to find ways to easily display the ever-rotating art that comes my way and this is my favorite. You can use almost any frame size or shape for this project, whatever suits your decor and the general size of art your kids produce.

Difficulty level: Beginner
Time required: 5 minutes

Things you’ll need:
Frame minus the back and the glass
Clothespins
Acrylic paint
Craft glue

Things to do:
1. On a covered work surface paint both the clothespins and the frame. Allow them to dry completely.

2. Position the clothespins so that they will hold paper evenly in the frame.

3. Glue the clips down and allow them to dry before hanging the frame and displaying the art.
