Frame Children'S Drawings

Your child may be an aspiring artist or you may just be a proud parent wanting to display your child's artwork throughout your house. If you are looking to frame your children's drawings, you may want to consider making it an integral part of your home decor. You may also consider framing the artwork to present as a gift to family members. Follow these steps to frame your children's artwork.


Instructions


1. Decide if you want to frame your children's drawings for your own home decor or for family members or friends as a gift.


2. Designate a special room or wall in the room for all of your children's drawings to be framed and displayed. Choose some frames that will make the drawings look as finished as possible. Some sleek black or white frames are a good choice for this look.


3. Mat your children's drawings instead of framing, if you are going for a more casual look in your home or in your children's bedrooms. If this is the case, you can easily change the drawings from month to month rather than taking the frames off the wall and cleaning the fingerprints off each time.


4. Ask your child to sign his or her name in the corner of the drawing to add a special touch to the artwork. Present a lesson about famous artists such as Leonardo da Vinci. Show your children how other artists add their names to their art pieces.


5. Encourage your children to paint the drawings as well to create some colorful pictures to frame for your home. Let your child help you decorate and hang up their framed drawings.
