This home craft is a fun, affordable way to decorate your child’s room or playroom with their artwork, and can be modified to frame and display your own work too! 

Step 1

Supplies for artwork display home craft

This easy home craft focuses on creating a display for children’s artwork, but you can absolutely modify it for your own artwork or crafting other interesting displays. A discount store is a great place to snag frames for super affordable prices!

Once you have the artwork ready to frame, it’s time to get out the Tacky Adhesive Dots! First peel the top liner away from the dot.

Step 5

Continue adding Tacky Dots

Next press the Tacky Dot exposed side down onto the back of the artwork and remove the remaining liner. Repeat the process in several places on the back of the art. You don’t need too many Tacky Dots since they offer great holding power!

You’re almost finished with this home craft! After you’ve added as many Tacky Dots as you need to the back of each piece of art, press glue dot side down onto the back panel of the frame.

Next press the top panel on top of the bottom panel, sandwiching the art in between. Reassemble the frame and your artwork is ready to hang!
