Looking for some creative ways to display your kids’ artwork? I’ve got you covered with this simple and beautiful ways to display kid art in your home.
As soon as your kids start school (especially if it’s preschool), this phenomenon begins – they’re constantly bringing home artwork and papers. And usually? They want them to be displayed. Soon, you’re swimming in kids’ artwork, your fridge is stuffed, and you’re out of ideas.
It can’t just be me!
My oldest son is also big fan of drawing and creating his own art when he’s home. I love it, but it quickly adds up and before I know it we’ve got more art than we know what to do with.
I’m always looking for simple and creative ways to store and display kids’ artwork. So, today I’m rounding up some ideas to get you started in your own home!

I LOVE this wall of clipboards! It would be so fun in any part of your home, and it's a great way to easily swap things out on the regular, too.
I never would have thought to repurpose a vintage window into a place to display art, but I love how this looks! It would be fun to even have a collection of these in a long hallway for art, family photos, and more.
This post has a few ideas, but I love these wood pieces with clothespins to display art. It's quick and easy, easy to change out, and something your kids can control themselves!

My personal favorite is using the door of your art closet to display art! My kids keep all of their art supplies in here, and so I just used some peel and stick cork board squares to give them a place to hang their art. They LOVE it, and it cuts down on the clutter a lot!
And finally the simplest, but maybe one of the best - a giant cork board! We have a huge cork board hung in our oldest son's room and it's ALWAYS full of art and memories!
