Do you feel guilty when you throw away your children’s drawings? With seven kids, my house is always overflowing with drawings, paintings, and sculptures. \u00a0Here are a few simple solutions to keep artwork from taking over your home.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Frame It<\/h3>\n

We frame some of our children’s favorite artwork. These paintings and drawings add colorful decorations to our walls and the kids love seeing their artwork on display. I buy inexpensive frames at IKEA to keep the cost down.<\/p>\n

Take a Picture of It<\/h3>\n

Take photos of your child’s artwork before you dispose of it. You can combine your photos into a photo collage or make a photo book from the photos of the artwork. One photo album takes up less space than stacks of paintings.<\/p>\n

Use it for Wrapping Paper<\/h3>\n

Small gifts can be wrapped in artwork, especially if your children draw or paint on butcher paper. Friends and family will enjoy getting their gifts wrapped in one-of-a-kind paper.<\/p>\n

Mod Podge Furniture<\/h3>\n

Use mod podge <\/a>\"\"to cover a piece of furniture with your kid’s favorite drawings. An inexpensive coffee table or dresser can be turned into a conversation piece by using it to display artwork.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
