Unusual Custom Silhouettes

Here at AT, we love a good silhouette. When I feel like flexing my Photoshop muscles, I'll sometimes create laser portraits of my friends on those awful 80s backdrops. It's a cool gift item because it's personalized, doesn't cost a ton, and can look really great in a room.

 
 

For those readers who are more inclined to purchase something handmade, there are lots of places out there that will make custom portraits of your pets, friends, lovers, uncles, cousins, bikini waxers, dominatrices...

These are some new ideas and sources for all your silhouette needs. Please share your own favorites!

I just saw a round-up on customized silhouette pillows today. It's at:

I might try making one with paper and a lamp to make a shadow... any one have tips on how to get your dog to stay still?
