How to Create a Fathead

Fatheads are the life size wall clings that represent famous athletes, entertainers and other celebrities. While you can purchase premade Fatheads featuring everyone from Peyton Manning to Mickey Mouse, there's nothing quite like a larger-than-life print of one of your very own family members. Let your child know he's a celebrity in your eyes by creating a Fathead with him as the star. If you have a favorite shot, be it a family photo or a picturesque photo of the beach, you can turn these into Fathead prints as well and make your own mural for the wall using these clings.

Instructions

      Take a clear shot for your desired Fathead. Keep in mind that the picture will be blown up to several times the original size, so you'll want the best picture possible. To make your child into a star like the ones featured on the site, try catching an action shot of him in his sports gear. Take several shots so you can choose the best one.

  • If there's more than one person in the picture you upload, but you only want a Fathead of one, be sure to specify this in the comments section of the order form.
