apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Reminds me of Girl Scouts!

There was a company that made silhouettes by turning a large piece of wood and making a silhouette out of the negative space, like the vase/faces illusion. The original wood piece was cylindrical, so the negative-space silhouette went all the way around. I wish I could remember the name of the company and post a link - they made really beautiful gifts.

Found it!

My aged aunt had them going up a stairway. They creeped me out as a child. I must have been scarred for life, because they still do.

I got one one my trip to Disneyland. I was charmed by it. Where oh where could it be?

Hey, Max was introduced to silhouettes at Disneyland, too. I wish I knew where my little one is . . .

I had some pet portraits made as a gift by Miss Crowland on Etsy. SO much better than trying to do them myself.

A man named Guy Jones did silouettes at the Minnesota State Fair back in the day. I still have a couple of me around age 4.

i like the idea but as i'm not on speaking terms with my large polish nose this would never work for me.

I've sold off most of my "Nightmare Before Christmas" stuff, but I still display my Jack and Sally silhouettes (from Disneyland) year-round.
