In this video, Rebecca Robertson shows us her great DIY wall structure for displaying temporary art. She uses it to display children's artwork in her son's room, but the same concept would also work well for posters, photos, inspiration images, etc.

I love this idea using the lattice grid! I had tons of artwork piling up and so I put up an art display as well, except I used twine:

Mine took about an hour and cost under 20$ so it was good for a quick fix - I would definitely consider switching over to the lattice for something more permanent! Love the video!
I like this alot too. Doesn't work for me as a renter but will file away for a later date.
Nice, free ad for the carbonated beverage. They owe you.
Brilliance! My boys just papered their entire room with art (and used a full roll of scotch tape - thankfully I already have plans to repaint!) and while I love the gallery effect, I was hoping to sort out something better. Thankyou AT!
Just this past week my husband and I took a watercolor painting by our almost three year old grandson to Hobby Lobby and bought a very nice frame (11x17) and had a mat cut to showcase the work...we had them put turn slides on the back so we could remove the work and replace it with new paintings later...we also had different size mat openings cut in several other mats to use with smaller paintings or drawings. We had a frame that was perfect with a gun metal finish and non-glare glass...the mats the same color with just a little bit of silver squiggly shapes in it. It cost us $27.00. We will have one made for baby brother too! We will hang their artwork in the family dining area in our house....
That should have said bought a nice matting and had it cut to show case work...and turn slides on the back of the frame,....
One problem is that we have the ceiling fan on during summer and the pictures can flap around.
