hanging/storing/tossing your kid’s art
what you see above are two of Lily’s art pieces taped on the bottom part of our book shelf
Lily does a lot of art around here
some of it really awesome and some of it… well, not so awesome (to my standards anyway)
these days she likes to hang/tape her art on the walls as she finishes a piece
her art can be found taped up all through the house
aside from all the taped up art, i also have a huge bag of Lily’s work since she started painting at six months old
there are some great pieces in that bag that one of these days i have to drag with me to ikea and find big frames for
i like to encourage her to hang and display her work
her good work anyway
sometimes she will just scribble on paper and then want to hang it
that art i usually toss
not in front of her of course
but i toss it
i would like to know, what do you do with your kid’s art?

Ha, yeah.. that is the endless issue to the endless amount of art/scribblings eh? I totally just cram her art back in behind her creating table… then usually recycle most of it – but save a few select pieces (cuz who’s REALLY going to want it a few years/days/minutes from now?) .. I dream of taking photos of them, and overlapping them with shots of Azi for an album…. or could use the large paper as fun wrapping paper for future gifts for family and all!

@Mel,
saving it for wrapping is a great idea! but she usually does her own thing on that too lol. xo

muito fofinhos os desenhos! adoro os olhos, até têm pestanas!
o meu filho tbém não se contenta em desenhar um sol só, desenha vários. achei engraçada a semelhança 🙂
bjo.
