Vent: Kiddo's scribbles vs a fancy print from Target? My spouse and I are stuck.

So I had this convo with my sister last week. She said my wall of my 5 year old's drawings looks like a daycare threw up on the wall. But then I see her boring framed leaf print from Target and it has zero personality. My side says the kid's art is free and tells a story, her side says save the walls for stuff that looks intentional. I mean we have 6 pieces up now and the frames cost me like $12 total from the dollar store. But is there a happy medium here? Like a way to display kids art without it looking like a mess? What do you all do in this situation?

Did you try sticking them in those magnetic frames so you can swap them out whenever?

Try those magnetic clip frames - got a pack of 4 for like ten bucks and now we swap out drawings every couple weeks. Makes the wall look intentional but the kid still gets their spotlight.
