This is what a typical morning in our house is like. Colorful and messy! These kids love to create...especially with paints! The only problem (other than having to clean up after) is figuring out what to do with all the art work when they finish! Katie LOVES to display EVERYTHING she draws/paints and she usually runs directly for the tape and adheres her paper to the nearest wall. Not my idea of decorating, but it makes her pretty happy. However, I'm running out of scotch tape.

| Magnetic Photo Rope from photojojo.com |
All I did was take each end of each rope and twist together to create a tiny loop, then hung them on nails. SUPER easy!
Above is a close-up of them attached to the wall with a few random paintings. Below you can see where in the kids' playroom I have them hanging. You can also see a couple of drawings still taped to the wall! Those will be coming down soon. We'll also get some more artwork up there and arrange it a little better when I get some more magnets. I may even have a rope going down each side for more display space....we will have quite a few Easter things to display soon!
Now I REALLY can't wait to get to Happy Quilt and Dream Depot this week and get started on my next project for the playroom!

I love it! What's the next project for hte playroom? Also, did hte Korean Daisos have those teeny magnets? Clara basically wall papered our kitchen with finger paintings while Tyler was in Iraq and her pre school stuff is already getting out of control.
It's good to see you happy. I have seen some ideas I would like to tackle with Shelby for Easter.
Good work finding an alternative. Love the finished product; think I might steal the idea. :). Where did you get the mini table and chairs? They are cute!
Thanks guys! :)
@Anna, my next project is to do a silhouette thing with cute fabric for each of the kids. I've almost got everything for it....so, hopefully, soon! And I didn't see the magnets here, so I asked Laura Br. to pick some up for me.
@Laura, I got the table and chairs through AAFES.com...but don't ship it to your APO, it takes MONTHS. I shipped it to my sister in the states and she forwarded for me. Got it in less than two weeks!
I'm super jealous of your guys' play room! That's something we desperately need! Don't you just love Pinterest?! I've found some great ideas for decorating Zoe's room!
