We have a jungle theme going on in the nursery room, including a little elephant display above her bed. So when I came across a picture of little strung up elephant cutouts, I fell in love. Sadly the link was to tublr’s login page so I couln’t find the source {I hate links to tumblr!!} So anyways, I thought these would be super easy to make. All you really need is scrap-book paper & an outline to trace. Except I don’t have scrap-book paper lol. Sooo I made my template in photoshop and found a bunch of cute {non-copyrighted} patterns online. {I also made an outline for anyone who DOES have scrap-book paper and would like to use it:) } Here’s what I ended up using:
I also put all the images on a PDF {download}. Here’s how I assembled them:





Here’s how it looks in the room…



While I was doing this little girl was checking out her books…
Which reminded me I should show everyone where our IKEA canopy ended up – it is now being used for the chair in her room. We kind of just stuck it back there to keep it out of the way, but it actually ended up being pretty cool.
She loves looking at books in her little chair! 🙂
