I chose these silhouettes of my grandma Sally for Treasure Chest Thursday. I don't see this done much today and didn't know much about it at all until I seen these. My grandma says she was about 6 when these were done. Her aunt liked getting them. I think it's cute that you can see the little bow in the black silhouette. Luckily I have a lot of pictures of my grandma, but if I didn't i would be thrilled to have even this.
Oh, I love these! I have some of my kids, but they are no where near as nice as these. I agree, they are certainly treasures! :)
ReplyDeleteI remember every kindergartner had these done...maybe for Mother's day? I remember the teacher lining us up and we sit still while she ran a pencil over our profile.
