Silhouettes

These images are making me want to roll up my sleeves and make some DIY silhouette art. You can either go the classic route---black silhouette on white background, or you can do colors on patterns, white silhouettes on a colored background...etc etc.

Love these whimsical colorful silhouettes, backed by a graphic bold wallpaper. Definitely not your old fashioned silhouettes now, are they!

I'm in the process of mentally redesigning my RoseRoom (living rm).I usually take a year or so putting things together in my mind be for I actually get to working on it! Silhouettes of my children would be so perfect...but doing 11 is a bit daunting...maybe if I do one or two a week :o)
Thanks for the great idea!
