Welcome
to a world of woodworking and craft -- you're doing both when you make a silhouette or yard shadow to enhance your property. It's easy to make any of the shadows you see on our site. Take the resting deer pictured to your right. . .a small 4x4 piece of 1/2" thick plywood, a hand held jig saw, and some black paint is all it takes.
Anyone can make super-looking yard shadows using our FULL SIZE patterns.We have a "How To Guide"
for beginners posted online, but here's a quick low-down. First, transfer the full size pattern we send you to the plywood or material of your choice. You can do this by cutting out a pattern and tracing around it. You can also use
transfer paper
, which is like carbon paper -- this saves your patterns from being cut up, plus makes things a little easier in general. Next, cut the lines you drew using the hand held jig saw. Go over the
rough edges with 80 grit sandpaper. Paint with black primer paint.You can attach your black (or white, or whatever color) silhouette to a garage, barn, fence, house, or stake one in the middle of
the yard. Attach them to trees, stick them in the flower bed. There are so many ways to make yard shadows and silhouettes a part of your home. Even though you know they are there, you'll
still get startled by your shadows now and again -- specially by the
people! |

3 FEET WIDE SHEETS!!
At YardShadow.com, we know woodworking patterns. We know that tracing out a huge project like our Mule Deer
would be a hassle if it were on small sheets that you have to keep taping together. That's why all of our silhouette patterns are printed on 3' wide sheets of paper -- many require no taping at all.Just take a
look at the Mule Deer project. It comes on ONE SHEET. You will not find shadow patterns like this anywhere else. The patterns that do require pieces to be taped together usually do not exceed 3 or 4
pieces, making it VERY simple for you to get the pattern traced, get you started cutting and finished with your shadow project. For some projects, multiple pieces of paper can't be helped -- they only make paper
so big! You can count on ALL shadow patterns you purchase at YardShadow.com to be easier to use than any other pattern you might have used. Try one and we think you'll agree. In this case, bigger IS
better. . .and we deliver. |
