I do this with the drawings they are most proud of or that I absolutely love...they get the biggest kick out of their artwork being displayed! Great ideas!!!

I save the ones we like the best and stuff with hand/footprints. I bought one of those accordion-type, giant portfolios and it is great for storing the stuff.

I love the wrapping paper idea, we will have to do that next time we wrap a gift! What we did was to put up a wire "clothesline" in the playroom and we hang their favorites of the season up for a while. It's a cute decoration in the playroom and keeps from tacking and taping up the walls. This helps some of the artwork have a home for a while. Great ideas!!!!

I'm going to save them up so the kids can give them as Christmas gifts to their grandparents. I won't throw out a craft if I haven't first pulled off the googly eyes, buttons, foam cut outs and anything else of value. That’s a great idea about giving the crafts away.
