Silhouette

This is the gift I made for the grandparents for Grandparent's Day. They LOVED them. I think I may have to make one for me too! The total cost of the project was about $4.00 a piece. Not too shabby if I do say so my self!

This is what I put on the back of the plaque. Yeah, it in nearly impossible to get a good handprint of a 10 month old. But hey, it is the thought that counts, right?
