Projects {Cheating}

February is supposed to be my month of getting projects done, but I am severely under-motivated. The to do list is long, the short month is over halfway done and now I'm cheating : with one project that's been done since the New Year, and another project that isn't mine at all.

Back in the fall, a couple of girlfriends and I got together and made silhouettes of our babies. The hard part for me was getting a photo that really captured Viv's profile. We cut out the silhouette from the printed photo, traced it on black paper and cut that out. I framed them in thrift store frames that I spray painted black, added in some framed patterned paper and an art print to the mix. Now we've got art in our bathroom.

This is the valentine my mom made for Vivian. It also happens to sport a silhouette...and so many perfectly lovely details. I adore it. It's hanging on a ribbon board in the living room so we look at it throughout the day.
