Rockstar Masterpieces: A Childrens Art Wall Display

Happy Wednesday, Crafters! I’m excited to show off the art wall I’ve been working on to showcase my kids art. As I’m sure you know, a refrigerator fills up quickly when you have avid little artists running around, so I wanted to have a wall dedicated to displaying those cherished works of art.

Children’s Art Wall

This is the hallway that is right off my breakfast nook {remember, i’m still decorating my breakfast nook!} The rockstar pictures {also seen here} of the boys was the inspiration behind this wall. And those pictures are some of my all time favorites! It was one of those photo shoots that we didn’t plan, it just happened. And it was perfect! It was on a Sunday morning, right before church, and the boys dressed in white shirts and bow ties were trying on their new sunglasses. I snapped away and totally loved how they turned out!

So of course I had to use the cute rockstar picture of my boys for the Rockstar art wall!

Kids Art Wall Display

I had fun cutting vinyl with my Silhouette CAMEO to finish off the rockstar look for the wall. I used 3 different colors of vinyl and actually layered some of the vinyl to create a shadow for a 3D effect. {i know its hard to tell in these pictures} I liked integrating some color with the vinyl.

If you look closely, you can see the “scarecrows” my 3 year old draws. They are the cutest little drawings ever! I want to frame like all of them!

My boys LOVE LOVE LOVE this art wall! Every time they finish coloring, painting, or drawing something, it goes right to the wall! My oldest is able to reach up and clip his papers to the wall himself. Which makes him so happy! Sometimes he will walk over to one of the pictures on the art wall and tell me a story about the things drawn on it. Its quite hilarious! He has quite the imagination.

To make the board with clothespins, I first spray painted the wood parts of the clothespins, then I used gorilla glue to glue wood clothespins to a board. Then Davis screwed the board into the wall.
