What do you do with the things kids make at school?
I'm moving and my kids have so many woodworking projects that take up a lot of space and that I don't want to take with me to our new apartment. Would you toss?
with the crafts that make it into our house, we keep the very best, toss the scribbles, and take pics of the middle of the road stuff and make a photo book of it all once a year.
Photograph and display for a week or two. Then put in the 'Hopper." That's a closet where we put stuff we *think* we want to toss but are not 100 percent sure we want to let it go. We keep it for a year in marked sections and then it goes goes goes without further discussion.
When my kids were younger, we made the hallway one big "art Gallery" and kept all artwork on display for the entire school year. At the end of the school year, I kept the best ones, but threw away the rest. I didn't keep too many sculpture type pieces. They found their way to the trash. :-)
