Art Wall of Fame


                                                                           My two year old LOVES art; she loves to paint, color, and take photos.. So each year I hang all her art work and variou photos or keeps sake for the year on her "Art Wall of Fame" all I did was get a few screw in hooks and some string also some paper clips to hang the art; you can also use clothes pins or whatever works best for you! At the end of the year I take it all down and put in a file for my daughter so when she gets old she can see all the awesome art work she did as a kit!
