Cheery Silhouette (re)Prints for the Office
February 5, 2012 in Do it your Dog-Gone Self, Gettin' Crafty, Pups
I’ve been a bad blogger. A bad, bad blogger. I started a new job last Monday and I’m oh-so-excited about it, but it made for a tough week. Trying to get into a new routine, dogs at home all day and officially a commuter once again. BUT – I promise to do better! I just needed last week to get things in order. PLUS – once I get settled in my new position I’ll be able to take the pups with me to the office. Amazing right?! What are the odds that a girl can find not one, but TWO jobs that let her share her workplace with her favorite little munchkins.
So my office…. It needs a little kick. A little personality. A little Dana.
I don’t want to go walking int here with armloads of DIY, so I thought I’d play it safe and start little. I have a small shelf in the office above a cabinet that would look cute with a couple little things. Hmmm but what things? Well… you’ve probably figured out by now that I’m OB-SESSED with my dogs. BONUS – everyone at my new office is as dog crazy as me. Being short on time this week, I needed quick and easy so I decided to re-use some of my previous elbow grease. Take a look at this!

Do those faces look familiar? Hmmmmmmmmm…… How about now?

Man… what a difference daylight makes in pictures! Check out the difference between the first and second pics above. Night time…. Daytime…. Literally night and day.
So all I did was resize my silhouettes and print them directly on scrapbook paper as 4×6″ prints. Simple as that! I chose green because that’s the main office color. We even have bright green conference room chairs. Fun right?!
Missed the silhouettes tutorial the first time around? No worries! Here’s the photo editing portion and here’s the printing/assembly! Enjoy!
Have a great week everyone. I promise not to stay away so long. …and once I get some things settled in my office space, I’ll snap you a few pics so you can see where I’ll be spending my 9-5.

As always, I’d love for you to stop by some of my favorite link parties…














Yea for the new job! What kind of job did you get that they’ll let you bring your dogs? We keep trying to have a “dog day” at work but haven’t succeeded yet. I think it’d be so fun! My dog would probably just lay on his bed at my feet all day
Congrats on the new job! And amazing that they let you bring the pups, I’m SO jealous!! And cool craft project, too
[...] the space reflect my personality. The only pieces of “me” that I’ve added are the scrapbook paper silhouettes and a store-bought dog bed. Pretty pathetic right? Well it’s time for a [...]
