The problem:
A constant influx of our daughter’s artwork from preschool; a desire to
show off her work, but little time to spend re-framing new artwork.
The solution: Clip the artwork and hang it from
cable wire. You could put this together
from items available at your local hardware store, but we used the DignitetCurtain Wire system from IKEA. It comes
with corner pieces that can be hung straight out from one wall to another to
span an entire wall, like we did, or at a ninety degree angle to allow you to
hang the wire at any length you desire.
It is sold
as an inexpensive and customizable alternative to the curtain rod for hanging
curtains, but we like the look and the flexibility for displaying artwork. Because it is cable wire, it is strong (the
Dignitet system has a max load of 11 lb), so you could even use it in your
office to keep pencil holders and other lightweight tools off the work surface.
Please share your solutions for displaying children's artwork!
