DIY: {Kids} Art Display

I showed you here what my new {kids} art display looks like!

Here are 10 easy steps to a new art display!

(it really is easy....I promise!)

Supplies needed:

1x8 pine boards

Spray paint

Sandpaper

Large paper clips (found mine @ Walmart; $1.88 for 2)

Wood glue

Picture hangers

1.  Measure your wall space, and decide how long you want your boards to be.

2.  Go to your local hardware store, pick out your boards, and have them cut to

     size.

     (this will save you so much work-they usually will cut your boards for free!)

3.  Spray paint your boards (several light coats)

4.  Sand down the edges (if you liked the distressed look)

I really like my 3M sanding block.  It has lasted me a long time.  It's way easier to hold than a piece of sandpaper.

5. Evenly space your clips across the board, and mark when you want them.

6.  Use wood glue (or gorilla glue, etc) to glue your large clips on.

7.  Install the picture hangers to each end of your board.

8.  Hang on wall. (and attach art of course!)

9.  If you want vinyl lettering, you can cut it yourself using a Cricut (that's what I did), or find a vinyl shop online-there are tons! I used the font "Freeze" and it can be found for free here

10.  Done!
