Papercraft Family Tree

 I love to display the photos of my kids in my house. I always make sure there is a photo wall in my home. At first i had one like this in my corridor. 

                                                                           This was big enough for the corridor. But now we have shifted to a new house which is too big compared to the former one, with lots of empty walls. So i felt the photo frame cluttering wont work for these big walls. Started looking for a different plan. After so much of googling one idea struck my eyes.

Its cost was 100 dollars.Since it was too much expensive for me to buy i decided to make one by myself. Bought black chart paper from Borders. Cut out the templates of leaves,branches and birds on that.My artist husband helped me out in it. Then cut it using a cutter,hot glued on the wall.Finally the ikea photo frames took their positions with the help of a double sided tape. This was the result.

I know its not at all perfect compared to the original one. Its cissy's minature version :) But still i love it and it makes our dining room  wall lively.
