DIY easy silhouettes!

every time we visit Disney Land i am determined to get my kids silhouettes taken, and then i'm reminded they cost about $50.00 a piece!! (everything cost a million dollars at DL) but, here is the deal... i'd rather spend $200.00 on a character breakfast, and turkey legs!! there, i said it.  so, if your a fan...here is the down low on how to make your very own, super EASY silhouettes!

DIY silhouettes

i took a side profile picture of each chicken.

i printed each picture onto photo paper. size 5X7. 

p.s. you can also use card stock.

(the baby's profile picture was taken in the wrong direction. no big deal, i just flipped it!)

cut them out and lay them on wax paper. 

(the paint stuck to the paper towel...live and learn)

grab your black acrylic paint and a sponge brush.

go to town painting!

(it took me 3 coats)

i bought 4 white frames at target.

i was going to just have a white back ground.

but, i had some left over amy butler scrap book paper

and thought it would look cute.

i took the matte out of the frame and traced the paper.

 glue the pic.onto the paper.

easy!

assemble, and tada!

it's amazing that you can tell

each chicken apart by just looking at their profile!

my chicken's felt so special!

have a great weekend!!
