(Boring thread alert) - affixing kids artwork to walls

[pilsbury]

Anyone found a good way to do this? Sellotape obvs ruins the paintwork, and white tack just doesn't seem to stick well enough... I know its a v dull question but is there a better way to get kids' artwork (on paper and cardboard) onto walls?

Is there any way you could incorporate a pin board?

It depends on your space & budget really. I've seen people put up a line along a wall and use clothes pegs. Some companies offer to shrink scanned versions of pictures and then create a montage pictire for you to frame.

The attached picure makes use of an IKEA curtain line and pegs.

Pinterest is bound to have loads of ideas...

Edited to say we're just using sticky tape at the moment but that's on a to-be-decorated surface!

This was on an email I was sent the other day - might give you some ideas?

(obviously not good for huge masterpieces nor storing the volume of stuff produced but for me it's a start!)

we just use blue tack, works perfectly! We have paper, card, paper plates all stuck up.

We use the Ikea curtain wire and clips and absolutely love it.

My eldest has used blue tack on his bedroom walls and unfortunately it has damaged the paint.

Magnetic paint from Color Makes Me Happy with small magnets has worked well for us (and you can paint over it so just looks like part of the wall)
