Fun Way to Display Your Family Photos Plus, Every Child is an Artist, Vinyl Wall Quote


Here's a different way to display your family photos, whether it be in your kids rooms, family room or living room.. Make your child the star of his own photo wall.  Make them as long or as short as you want.   It's a casual look but so darling and so easy to do. Now you've got a great idea for what to do with that large wall in your home, you know, the one that has been blank forever because you can't decide what to put on it? Yeah, you've got this!


I love the look of this cable art system being used as home decor with your family photos. You could also do a "collage" of  vacation photos. How about using pictures of things you've made/designed or your accomplishments. Photos of friends would be fun for a teenager. Are you a cat or dog lover? Put up photos of your pets.  How put clippings and photos of your favorite sports team? The skies the limit of what you could hang on your Cable Art Wall. Head on over to Every Creative Endeavor  to see  what she used and find out how to do this fun photo display.  There are more photos too that you'll want to see.



Here's a tutorial for the cable art system from Positively Positively Splendid It's a little different than the system above, but you'll get the idea.

This type of system is also really great for displaying your kids artwork. Use it in their bedroom or out in the family room or kitchen where everyone can enjoy it.   Here's an earlier post about using the cable art system for kids artwork.

Tips and Tricks:Do You Like Fun Organizing Tips?

 We all would love to have a beautifully organized home, wouldn't we? Sometimes it seems overwhelming, I know.  But if we take baby steps, meaning, one room at a time or one closet at a time it isn't so bad.  What kind of feeling do you get after you've organized a area or space? It's a very good feeling.  During your reorganizing you may even find things you thought were lost forever. That's one of the perks!  Below are some really great ideas for organizing different parts of your home.....Then let's get started!



How about a bin exclusively for snacks....not just for the kids but for the grown-ups too? My daughter and I had a baking day you wouldn't believe a few days ago. 8 loaves of bread, two different batches of muffins, 3 batches of homemade graham crackers and 4 batches of a delicious granola bar I had posted earlier on my facebook page.  She took these yummy things home and packaged them individually for a easy grab in the morning for school lunches! It's a good idea.  SOURCE



If you love cooking with spices and have quite a few of them, then this one is for you.  I love how she glued a piece of metal on the inside of her cabinet door and filled up these metal containers with the spices. It freed up a entire shelf!  She did more organizing of the cupboard that I know you'll want to read about.  SOURCE



 I love having all the batteries in one place and this case is a very good idea. Click here to see where they got it and get all your batteries in one place. If you have them together it is easy to see when you need to buy more.  SOURCE



Do you do the laundry in your home? You're going to  want to read this woman's story about how a NEW laundry system changed her life.  I think it bears trying. It couldn't hurt!   SOURCE

 Now how to "organize" or place your photos on the wall.  This is such a clever idea-just use a curtain rod or an decorative iron rod and tie the photos on with a ribbon.  Incidentally, the instructions for building this beautiful table are on the blog SOURCE


I've always loved the look of barn doors for doors in a home. With these painted a bright orange it makes quite a statement. Use them in any part of the house, bedroom, closet or laundry room as shown or just as a room divider. Check out this blog to see more photos using barn doors.  SOURCE
