MICK, GET CRAFTY AND CREATIVE AND MAKE THEM LIKE DID! IT WAS SIMPLE. I MADE THE PATTERN FROM WOOD. THE COOKIE CUTTER DEPTH FROM WHITE ALUM FLASHING. TACKED THE FLASHING ON, FILLED IN THE GAP AROUND THE EDGE WITH WHITE PAINTABLE SILICONE, PRIMED THE WOOD AND FOLLOWED WITH RED AND WHITE TO MATCH THE PATTERN.

Yea Mick, then you bring them to your wife's Stamping class and rubber stamp the graphics on.
You can't go wrong straightening out the originals.

MICK, ISN'T THE SHAPE THE SAME? JUST LEAVE OUT THE DETAIL FOR YOUR LEGS.
