in progress

I am learning to make silhouettes and it's not as easy as I thought. Remember making silhouettes of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington as a child? The key is finding good profile photos, which is particularly difficult with a baby (I'm trying to make one of Little One). Here's a try at two family members ... a  craft in progress, you might say.

  1. I seem to remember my mom taking me to a local department store, when I was a kid, and having someone do my silhouette. Black paper on white.

    Funny, I'd not thought of that in years.

    And yours look great. Not like a novice at all. Keep at it! :)
