Silhouettes

IMG_5165

I am just so proud of these silhouettes I made!  I got the idea via NieNie Dialogues (you can see how she displayed them in her home here).  Even though it took me 6 months from start to finish, it really is super easy.  Unless you have a problem with long, drawn-out projects like me, in which it will be super easy but very slow.  Basically I just took some profile pictures of everyone, printed them out and taped them onto black card stock.  I cut along the outline of our profiles with an X-Acto knife and then mounted them on white mats.  I plan to update them once a year.  I love how they capture the essence of each of us in simple black and white.  More importantly, I love how they make our home just a tad more Our Home.
