Fingerprint art.

So anybody whose been reading my blog for awhile probably knows how much I love personalized and sentimental art (ie. here and here and here) around the house. I recently saw these stunning rings and knew I had to do something with our fingerprints.

And I pretty much LOVE what I came up with.

fingerprints

EDIT: TUTORIAL HERE!

I used our wedding ring fingers to make them a little more special and meaningful. Best part? Absolutely FREE. And the best surprise? My ring finger apparently has a teeny tiny M. My fingerprint is on the left. See it?

I can post a full tutorial to follow if anyone's interested!
