Creative ways to cherish and display kids' art

Photo: Mike Fallarme / Pexel


Here are five creative ways to preserve and display your kids' art without creating clutter:

1. Create a Rotating Gallery: Designate a wall or a section of a room as a gallery. Use frames, clipboards, or a wire with clips to easily swap out new artwork as it comes in. This way, you can regularly update the display and keep things fresh.

2. Make a Photo Book: Scan or photograph the artwork and compile it into a photo book. You can use online services to create high-quality, printed books that will preserve the art in a compact, easy-to-store format.

3. Turn Art into Gifts: Use the artwork to create personalized gifts. You can transfer their art onto items like mugs, tote bags, or T-shirts. This way, you can share their creativity with family and friends.

4. Create a Digital Archive: Scan or take high-resolution photos of each piece of art and store them digitally. You can organize them into folders by year or by child, and even create digital slideshows or screensavers to enjoy their work on your devices.

5. Art Collage or Quilt: Select smaller pieces or sections of larger works and combine them into a large collage or quilt. This can be a beautiful, functional keepsake that incorporates many pieces of their art into one cohesive item.
