Great idea, I think I'll make my kids one of their wedding photo for their anniversary this year.

That is so precious. Have you thought about doing a tutorial?

No it didn't enter my mind. LOL I'll give it some thought.

Love, love, love this idea! Don't think it would leave my wall either. In fact, I think I would do one every year...

That is just precious, thanks for the idea!

Yes I made it. I took photos of each grandchild to show their personality and used them for patterns. It didn't take real long, maybe a week or 10 days.


Sally, you inspired me to give the silhouette wall hanging a try. Thanks so much for sharing! I used pictures of my grandsons from our beach trip last year.

You would love it and it's so fun to do.

Neena 02-24-2011 03:02 PM

My grandkiddos love mine...they came in and looked so closely at it. The five year old said "I think that is me Nana". My daughter, their mother, saw it and was speechless and visibly touched...I am going to make her one for a mother's day gift. We will be at the beach again in a couple of weeks and I will take some photos with this project in mind. Thank you again Sally for something very special!

dinlauren 02-24-2011 03:30 PM
