White walls, bright lights...its an ART GALLERY

All over the blog world you see very cool projects for creating an Art Gallery for your kids. Well I loved the idea.  I was digging in my box of decorations for something different for my kitchen table and came across this sign I no longer use...AHHH its perfect! So here we go!
BEFORE: (cute but just not really used anymore)
I painted the outside fram a brownish color (I was originally going to do white-but after 4 coats trying to cover the blue...I moved on)
Then I popped thehears off the inside part of the sign.

I used some fun patterned fabric and Modge Podge and covered the words.
Can you believe how strong and stiff MP makes things! Its an amazing little product.
I then cut my letters using my Cricket and MP those on as well.


The clothespin I covered with corrdinating paper with MP and hot glued them onto the frame.
Here it is hanging on the wall. I like it, I think it came out well!  I hung it low to the ground so that the kids could put up what they wanted to.
AFTER:

  1. This is TOO cute! I made something similar the other month and my daughter loves to hang her art on it.

  2. This is so cool! I love that it is hung at kid level so they can hang things in their own personal "art gallery" for everyone to see. :) Melody

  3. Thanks so much for linking up to Tot Tuesdays this week! This project turned out great. I hang Ks artwork on a ribbon with pegs but this would work better. I am hosting my first giveaway which ends on Tuesday. I hope you’ll stop by. Have a great week! ☺
