I love when my kids create things, but finding places to display their artwork can take over your entire room!
That is why I created a kids art display to showcase their work in the playroom. This is an easy DIY project you can do with a frame, paint, and cloths pins!

Step Two
Using the hot glue gun, attach the cloths pins to the picture frames. I tried to get the in the center of the frame.
If you are a true perfectionist, you would measure the frame then find the middle based on that measurement.
Third Step
Once glue dries, paint the frame and the cloths pin. For this project, I went with using Deco Art Americana Acrylics paints. The colors I used:
- Golden Straw
- Desert Turquoise
- Hauser Light Green
- Royal Fuchsia
I used a sponge brush to get into the details of some of the frames I selected for this project.

Step Four
Once paint dries, use the 3M Command Brand picture hanging mounts to hang on the wall.
I used these on the back corners of the frames. Since the picture hanging mounts are velcro, you can adjust if you don’t get it perfect the first try.
Step Five
Then hang pictures on the cloths pin for kids art display!
I have found that these clips hold about 10 pieces of artwork before things start to fall off. Which is perfect for those budding artists.
