An art display in a small space

We live in a small, cosy flat and I've previously blogged about our art easel in a small space. This week we decided to create an art display by pinning some string to a door (as you can see in the photos it's also our 'sticker door'). It's low enough for Sunnyboy to reach and he's able to hang up his pictures himself using ladybird mini clothes pegs.

  4. We have a similar set-up. I hang his art on a string line, but I do it up high. I should move one of them to his level like you have, it's nice that he can hang it up by himself. Thanks for the idea.

  8. And we know he loves pinning things up with clothes pins!! What a happy life you're making for your family in your cozy flat! We did this kind of display in our kitchen area for several years, and the kids felt that we were really honoring their art efforts. I think you can't go wrong with this--it's colorful and fun decor, as well as a sweet way for your sunny boy to enjoy his efforts.

  9. I love it that Sunnyboy can arrange his own artwork. He can decide what gets put on display. You are doing such a wonderful job in teaching him.

    Have a most wonderful week.
