My first ever Pinterest project didn't require much but I love it all the same. Here is the inspiration for the project...
And here is my finished version.
I just used white pearl straight pins to keep the outfit and announcement in place the way I wanted them and then just placed the "E" in the corner and shut the door. Voi La!
I got the shadow box from Home Goods for $15, the "E" came from Michaels for about $3 and the announcement was a left over. Eli's outfit was a gift from a friend and he was so cute and tiny in when he came home.
I have so many other projects I want to do but there just never seems to be enough time. In the meantime I will keep dreaming and "Pinning".
Also, I entered The Pinterest Challenge over at Happy-Go-Lucky

So cute! Thanks for the idea. Will be trying this myself in a few months :)
I think I like your's better! :-)
My baby boy wore the exact same outfit home from the hospital : ) Very cute idea!
What a super idea that beats stuffing those special outfits in a drawer, for sure! I pinned it on my board so more people would find your pics.

Hey there! Just wanted to let you know we featured you in our Favorite Find Fridays post over at Whimsically Homemade. We used one of your pictures. If that's a problem let us know and we'll remove it immediately. Thanks for your great inspiration!
Aw, I just saw this on Pinterest and thought - LOVE!
And then I loved it even more when I clicked through to the post - because the pink and black shadow box project is my tutorial. :D
Yours is so adorable - love that little outfit in there!
Just by chance I found this on Pinterest and thought, I'm going to do this!
Then I read your instructions and thought 'How strange, my son's called Eli!' Then I thought 'How weird, this was posted on my husband's birthday.' Then I thought 'Wow, you are a twin and so is my boy Eli, to his brother, Dante.' I will be doing this project, it's a sign!!
What size is the frame? It is such a cute idea.
I love this idea. Any ideas where I can buy such a frame? Thanks and see you on Pintrest!
