Diy Layered Silhouette Oversized Wall Art


Like most Pinterest addicts users, I convey to a greater extent than things pinned than I volition e'er ready or brand or do.  Still, it's fun to await through such neat images as well as glean ideas hither as well as there.  I'm thus happy to live participating inward the Pinterest Challenge Project today. 


I've had the next paradigm pinned for a while.

I pinned from A Thoughtful Place, but I believe the master copy source is an Etsy shop.  I liked the persuasion of using an oversized backing to mass upwards a regular sized picture.  My persuasion when pinning was that I could purpose a sheet or board, pigment a fun designing on it, as well as affix roughly other framed moving-picture demo on the front end of it.

I've also long admired the large silhouettes inward this dining room that I showed y'all yesterday:


                                                             Source: shopping inward Dallas amongst my sister, nosotros ducked into a Habitat for Humanity as well as they had stacks of plywood squares, only larger than the size I wanted, for $3 each.  Score!  They trimmed them to size for me at Home Depot (for free).  I wanted to purpose a 16x20" frame for my overstep moving-picture demo amongst a symmetrical edge all the agency around, thus I had my boards cutting to 26x30".

Here's the run-down of how I position them together.

I planned to create a lattice impress stencil similar my pinned image, but later the firstly round...yuck!  It did non come upwards out good as well as I didn't convey the patience to re-do.  So, on amongst programme B (made upwards every bit I went along!)


I decided to become amongst a bold dark as well as white stripe pattern.  If I had planned that from the beginning, I in all probability would convey taped off the stripes as well as painted them.  But, since I was already at this indicate I ran to Hobby Lobby as well as picked upwards roughly 2" broad grosgrain ribbon to brand the stripes. Quick as well as easy.



To brand the silhouette, I took photographs of the kids inward front end of a window, as well as and then played amongst the contrast until they were dark.  After cutting out, I traced the caput onto dark posterboard.  After I decided which agency I wanted the heads to point, I genuinely flipped them over as well as traced them backwards.  This helped avoid whatever stray pencil marks on the finished head. Then, plough them dorsum over thus they are facing the direction y'all want.  I mounted the heads amongst scrapbooking photograph splits on a slice of white posterboard cutting to size. 


I purchased basic metallic portrait frames amongst drinking glass on sale at Hobby Lobby, as well as spray painted the frame gold.  The frame had these handy picayune brackets on the back, thus I position a blast correct into the plywood as well as hung the silhouette.  By the way, I used a sawtooth hanger inward the overstep corners of each slice of plywood to hang it to the wall.




Total terms for supplies: close $34 ($17 each)
It's hard to say inward the photos, but these are quite large thus I intend that's a pretty skilful bargain for custom artwork.


I volition eventually hang these inward the hallway leading to my Wall of Mirrors, but since I convey a large blank wall inward the dining room, I hung them at that spot for forthwith until I discovery a china cabinet to identify inward that spot.
