Dinosaur Cut Outs

We decided to go with the Dinosaur bedding and I had my heart set on repainting the room until Nathan came up with the idea of making dinosaurs for the walls to match the bedding instead (this is his way of getting out of painting around the windows, doors, etc. in the room). The entire time he's trying to explain this idea to me I'm thinking....were not artists....these are going to turn out horrible...

Bedding:

First Step: Take pictures of dinosaur bedding and use a projector to project the pictures onto the boards and draw them.



Second Step: Cut out the dinosaurs and sand the edges




Third Step: Use the projector again to add all the little details to the dinosaurs

Fourth Step (and sixth and seventh and.....): Paint






Finished:


So yes my genious husband had a wonderful idea. I love how the dinosaurs turned out!
