DIY Pet Silhouette Gift: Instructions
Step One – Grab a 5×7 thrift store picture frame or one of these. Give it a coat of your favorite colored spray paint.
Step Two – Search online for a pet silhouette that you love. Trace it onto the black felt then cut out using sharp scissors. {Sharp scissors will cut felt best and leave fewer raggedy edges.}

Easiest pet gift ever!
These pet silhouettes are our fur babies. I love how they fit right in with our children’s silhouettes on our Traditional Christmas Tree with a Southern Twist.
I simply used the same technique as my No-Sew Pet Christmas Stockings to create a DIY Pet Silhouette for as a part of our Dining Room Christmas Tree decorations. Go here to see the complete tutorial.
I love that these handmade gifts can be customized for any pet lover by simply searching for a specific pet silhouette online. My aunt is a total dog lover and I would love to make one silhouette for each of her FIVE dogs!
