what to do with artwork/ drawings etc

[hairymcleary]

I'm swimming in a sea of artwork and doodles from DS1, who is 5. Where do you keep them all? I want to keep a few for the future, but don't want to be overwhelmed with them, because my house is already small and cluttered... at the moment it feels like they're everywhere and I feel a bit mean binning them, because he's so enthusiastic about them...

I keep for a term on a special shelf, then harvest the best & bin the rest.

They really don;t care & have a very ephemeral approach to their work...

I thought this was a lovely idea but you still have the problem of what to do with them all in the meantime - big box under the bed?!

I have a box under their beds that they can put artwork in if they want.

Then I have two massive corkboards which I use to display anything half decent in a stylish manner.

Finally I have a cardboard folder for each child that I put two or three things a year.
