Confetti Cork Board

Confetti Cork Board

My children create a lot of art and I love displaying it. Not only because I love what my kids create, but because it gives them pride in what they make and confidence to make more. We're quickly running out of space on the refrigerator but I found an old cork board in the garage. So the kids and I turned it into a piece of art to display art! Lovely, right?

Ages:
2 - 9
Est. Time:
<1 hour

How we did it:

Materials List

  1. cork board
  2. paint
  3. cotton swabs / q-tips
  1. Confetti Cork Board Pin It

    We used acrylic paints for this, but if you would rather not commit to dots all over the kids' clothing, just yet feel free to use a less permanent paint. You will get the same results.

  2. Confetti Cork Board Pin It

    I added the first few dots myself and waited for little eyes to perk up. I love to get my children interested and engaged without saying a word. It shows me they love this just as much as I do.

  3. Confetti Cork Board Pin It

    We had a Q-tip for each color so we kept nice bright colors and didn't end up with any muddy browns.

  5. Confetti Cork Board Pin It

    I left this out, and the kids added dots to the board here and there. Emma stopped by while I was preparing meals. Grayson added some more splashes of color while I was doing dishes.

  6. Confetti Cork Board Pin It

    It went from a few dots to a blanket of beautiful colors.

    It was the perfect place to display beautiful art by my little artists.
