First I explained to M that every time I opened the cupboard doors, I would get a special surprise. Then I showed her the surprise! She loved seeing them hanging inside. When her daddy came home, she showed him the surprise, too. And my refrigerator isn't quite as crowded now.
These cupboards are displaying a pair of mittens (from school) and city (from home) and E's first scribble drawing.
How do you organize artwork? When I was a teacher I used a clothesline and had colorful clothespins. It was a hit!

I like "surprise" idea - we might hang some artwork in Anna's cabinets. We display her latest and greatest on the whiteboard in the kitchen.
I love that idea! Going to try it right now. :)
