bandwagon


i did it. i jumped on the bandwagon. i just couldn't resist the urge to add a little vintage flair to our bedroom in the form of personal silhouettes.


being a graphic designer, and thus an avid photoshop user, this was a cinch for me to do just using a side profile picture of each of us (and to give myself a more old-school hairstyle). just look at my hubs cute profile - someone put that man on a penny!

but if you aren't familiar with photoshop, an alternative way to accomplish this is to take that profile picture and cut it out and paint it black (or white as seen below). i think this more arts and crafts style is super cute!
and if you haven't gotten your silhouette inspiration fill quite yet, here's some more:
