Idea Quickie!

If you’re looking for a project you can do this weekend, I’ve got just the one for you!
Every week my girls are bringing home wonderful art pieces from school.  I LOVE their art and what better way to show them just how proud I am, than to display them on the wall in frames! 
Now, changing the art in and out of frames every week would be exhausting, so here is what I’ve done…
The Revolving Art Wall:

I had all sorts of frames in the basement.  Non of them matched and some were either missing the backs, or the glass was broken.  So, I gathered them up and painted them the same color as the wall.  I chose to do them the same color so that their art would really pop.  But, of course, you could paint them any color you like.  Then I hung them with Command Strips, so that if I ever wanted to move them around, it would be easy and no holes to fill.  I just hang the art inside the frames with painters tape.  It comes off without damaging the wall and allows me to change out the art as often as I like.

Easy-peasy!  You could definitely finish this in a few hours and it cost next to nothing!
Looks like I need to add some more frames!!!
Have a great weekend!
