Portrait DIY

At my in laws they have of course 9 of these going down the stairs in the basement. I just love them I think it's so neat!!! So I thought instead of looking around for an artist to do it... why not me! Warning you this is not the best looking portrait you've ever seen but not to bad! 

Materials:

Scissors

Tape

Black Paper/Brown Paper

Ivory Paper

Picture Frame of your choice

Picture of your child

Computer 

Printer

Procedure:

So you will take a picture of your child from the side... portrait view. Then you will go to your computer print it off and cut it out. After you have done this all you do is trace it onto your black or brown paper, and cut it out! Once you do this you tape it to the ivory paper and put it in your frame and you're done!!!! So easy... 

Step 1 you print and cut out the picture!

Trace flipped so you don't see the pencil and then flip over once cut out.

Tape to Ivory paper and frame it you're done!

I made one in brown paper for my mom and used a frame that would match in her house! I used the black for mine because it's going in my bathroom with the SAGE sign Joey and Linds got us!!! 

So easy and if I can do it you can too!!! 

Cost: 

Paper 59 cents each 

Frame half off at Michaels 10 dollars each

So roughly 12 dollars!
