How do I display my two year-olds artwork?

Thanks to some Pottery Barn inspiration, two wooden star hooks ($1 each),
a bit of blue paint, wooden clothespins, and some leftover wire hubby had,
I made this art display for my little guys room.

I love how simple and inexpensive it was to create. It adds such charm to his room, and I can change out his artwork as often as I'd like.

Cheap and cute? Works for me. =)

Happy Wednesday!

    That looks great! You are so organized Jen...

    I bought a similar art-displaying thing at Land of Nod--but it went missing when we started packing to put the house on the market!

    I love it, what a fun way to show off his work! We used to have something like that in our kitchen until we moved our bookcases in there for storage. Now that those bookcases are in the closet our wall space is freed up and I'm thinking about putting it back up.

    1. I love the display - it looks so good
    2. I love the artwork - Nicholas clearly inherited your gifts.
    3. We simply use a big magnetic board from IKEA and pin Anna's artwork on it with magnets.

    I do love simple ideas like this! I am looking for my husband to build a simple shelf for my computer desk...
