A variation on this is something we've used in our house: clothes pins and cord to hang our children's drawings. We have one up in the hall and one that goes around the kitchen.

Good point about it being too heavy, alttext. Maybe I will use foam core covered in paper as mattymatt suggests. We do have quite a span to cover. 

Hopefully I can get on this project next week while all the kids are gone for Thanksgiving break. I will definitely post pics if I get it done.

alttext: "the Photojojo magnetic photo rope could be your solution. If I could just find those little silver magnets I would be doing it." These magnets are neodymium or rare earth magnets. You can get them really cheap, for example at Gaussboys Super Magnets. The small ones literally cost a few cents. I ordered some at Supermagnete - they're fun to play with!

This is actually a post about the low platform bed (the website keeps kicking me over here); Ready Made magazine featured a terrific low platform bed awhile ago (maybe a year? I could kick myself for losing that issue). It was essentially two IKEA Lack bookcases sandwiched between plywood and set on casters to make a bed with storage; looked great and quite simple to do (they actually bragged on the cover that "A woman made this bed!"). I'm sure I could have managed to put the bed together and I'm domestically impotent.

Yes! Foam core would work well. It is nice and clean looking and cuts well.

Hey, neat, thanks for writing this up.
For slightly less work and expense, you could use foam core instead of wood.

Oh that is awesome, how it comes as wallpaper (if it were a real thing) and then you can peel off up to 4 layers of different grey tones.
