Art Gallery Project Completed

The Issue:
Photobucket
Nathan's projects taped on the wall wasn't aesthetically appealing.  To state it plainly, it looked like a constant mess.

The Ideas:

These were the Pinterest ideas which inspired me to finally do something about the mess.

The Improvement:

Step 1 -
Photobucket
I took an existing sign hanging up and set about to repurpose it.  I removed the existing lettering and started with a blank slate.

Step 2 -
Photobucket
I created the artwork I wanted to use and had it cut in vinyl, super easy to apply as seen here.

Wa-la and I love it!

Step 3 - 
Photobucket
Found these binder clips that tied in perfectly with the bar code design and applied them with hot glue.

Done, I hung this on the wall and we now have a dedicated place for Nathan's projects...and his handprints!
