The face or vase optical illusion we're all familiar with got me thinking, why couldn't it be a real face? Then I realized it could be a great gift idea, and a perfect DIY gift for Mother's Day! Fortunately, that holiday is nearby so this was the perfect opportunity to make my Mother's Day gift idea of a child's silhouette vase. We had to do it a bit early so I could share this idea with you in time to make one, but I'll tell you - my wife loved it!
