I was leaving a comment on Little Green Notebook's fabulous post on silhouettes and saw that someone posted a Groupon deal of Carter Kustera's silhouettes. $50 for one of his famous silhouettes (rather than the normal price of $100.)
You email him a pic of you in profile, choose your color, and come up with the custom text that he'll write beneath it. My husband has suggested "I'm my own person" for me - a phrase I used to say repeatedly when I was in nursery school. I'm still working on a good one for him... I might also want "You mess with the bull, you get the horns."
