Child’s artwork display

I have so much artwork lying around the house everywhere that I no longer know what to do with it. You can only have so many boxes full of drawings stored away. The fridge – our first point of display – is constantly covered with sweet drawings; when new ones come along the oldest ones are moved to a different place.  We now give drawings to grandparents and let them display as they want. As the drawing and painting skills improve is even harder to dispose of the artwork, because you want to keep it all. That’s why I was most impressed with the service offered by Simply Create who put your child’s best drawings into a proper display and create an appealing gallery to go on the wall. The final result makes a great gift to give to grandparents, family and friends or simply to hang on your child’s bedroom wall. You don’t need to send the artwork, simply scan or take digital photos or your favourite pieces and they create a collage. There is even room for a personalized message to credit the work. This is the kind of thing that really boosts kids’ confidence and makes them proud.

    I have the same issue with all our preschool artwork! I can’t discard anything and it’s taking over the house! I’ve been searching for a way to tackle it and create something meaningful with it all, so thank you!

    I love the idea of this but still doesn’t solve the issue of having to throw the artwork away….. although, i guess, once it has been scanned in and made into nice display, it may make the throwing away a bit easier !
