Real Estate Investment :The Simple Solution to All That Darn Kid Artwork - A Wall of Art

Article Summary:

Article Content:
If you have a kid in your house, chances are you have kid artwork. A lot of it.

Most likely you have it posted on the refrigerator, stacked in a pile or stuffed into a bin.  Not an attractive or useful way to display your kid’s creativity - at least that’s how I was feeling after jamming my daughter’s drawings into a storage bin every week.

While at Ikea (where so many good ideas are born), I came across the RIBBA frames in white. I thought, “I have wall space. I have kid art. And I have a hammer.” Here’s the end result - my kid art wall.





I could have fit another row of frames but I plan to put a low dresser on that wall.

It’s not the most economical way of handling my daughter’s artwork (.99/frame) but it accomplished a few things for me:

- I decorated my daughter’s room with original works of art that are very personal.
- I am now able to throw out my less favorite (or odd-shaped) items without guilt.
- The wall can grow with my daughter - as she ages and draws new things, we can easily change out the artwork.
