My kids love art so I wanted to make the perfect space for them to really get crafty and creative. I wanted to inspire my kids to create by bringing incorporating bright colors, inspirational words, and lots of art supplies. Be sure to download the Free Paint Chip Word Sign here to quickly decorate your own art nook!
The best part about this art nook is that all the supplies can easily be organized. My kids know where to place the supplies when they are finished using them so that their crafting space doesn't become an eyesore in our home. I also made sure that all of the art supplies were washable so I could let the kids create without having to worry about messes.
This white round tray is the perfect way to divide up the art supplies into different compartments. I added white flower pots to each section so I my kids could store longer items in the tray.We then sorted paint brushes, markers, dot paints, kid scissors and colored pencils into each pot. We used these chalkboard clips to label the supply containers. I love the contrast of the bright and colorful supplies with the white storage pots and tray. 
These bright mini pails are perfect for storing other fun art supplies. We filled them with pom poms, crayons, colorful craft sticks and washi tape. My kids love to craft with washi tape! 
Look how pretty the mini pails are with all the colorful supplies! 
If you plan on including paper at your art center make sure to use these large paper holders. They are big enough to hold 12" x 12" paper. We fill these with card stock and construction paper in our art nook. 
I wanted to create some inspiring art in this space and wanted to incorporate the words DREAM, IMAGINE, EXPLORE, and CREATE. I created this word art by simply printing out the Free Paint Chip Letter printable and trimming it to fit inside my frame.
We added a waterproof tablecloth to make clean up a breeze. We also added paper down the middle of the table using a paper roll. The kids love drawing directly onto this paper when they are brainstorming art ideas or just want to doodle. 
My kids are loving this space! They could not wait to create in our pretty, bright art nook! 
They even love clean up time because we made it so easy to place supplies back where they belong.
Your family will love having this art nook in your home so kids feel free to create at any time during the day. It's so east to throw together and kids will spend hours creating and having fun!
