D.I.Y all the time 

Silhouette holding balloons

I had gone thrifting a few weeks ago when i saw a bunch of vinyl records and i just knew i had to buy some to make something. I wasn't quite sure what that something was, i just knew i had to buy them. Then i came cross a picture of this silhouette girl holding balloons i thought i would be a great idea to substitute the balloons for the vinyl records. This is what i came up with.

NOW TIME TO START DRAWING YOUR SILHOUETTE DOLL!

STEP 6: First draw the silhouette in three parts to make it easier to draw the silhoette doll.

STEP 7: Grab your poster board and begin to the silhouette.

STEP 8: Cut out the silhouette.






( The silhouette is white in this picture because i first decided not to go with a traditional silhouette i was going to paint her in the Sea Breeze color which i didn't end up liking in the end. So i just traced the white silhouette to the black poster board and went with that).

STEP 9: Grab all your vinyl records, silhouette, and push pins.

STEP 10: To set up the silhouette, first put up the vinyl records and stick the with the push pins.

STEP 11: Pin up the silhouette doll.

STEP 12: Grab all the dangling balloon string, tie them together, and pin them to the silhouettes hand
