craftgrrl | The Easiest Makeover EVAH

I found these two vintage portraits at the Goodwill the other day for $US6 and brought them home. I named them "Ed" and "Geri" (short for Geraldine) and hung them in our living room which made them look rather formal. I had all sorts of ideas for how to make them cool, like having an artist friend paint Goth makeup on them or something grandiose. In the end, I finally found what just seemed perfect (AND SIMPLE...) and made my husband and I laugh and laugh and laugh so they're staying.

Sorry for the large images. Here are the originals:

Ed:

And Geri:

Here they are, new and improved.

Ed:

And Geri:

I hope you got a little laugh out of it too.

I also posted this to thrifthorror a while ago but I thought it also felt quite crafty. If this amuses you, you should check out that journal too. Good for a laugh or a good procrastination session.
