Silhouette Art

My downstairs hallway needed some more artwork - this was a very easy and cheap solution!


I simply took pictures of the profile of my boys faces then printed them out on my computer.  After taping the picture to a piece of black card stock I carefully cut them out.  Then I taped the black card stock silhouette onto a white piece of card stock then framed it!  
These frames are old ones I already had on hand (like I said this was a very easy and cheap project!).


After hanging them in my hallway the frames looked too small and needed something more so I added the numbers below to give them more presence.  I found the numbers at hobby lobby for $2 a piece.



I couldn't fit the fourth frame in this shot but I did make a silhouette of my baby as well.  It didn't turn out great so I'll probably be redoing it when he gets a little older and can hold his head up on his own!


I love how they turned out!
