I have one of two of my children, and would like a matching one of my oldest child. Do you know of someone who might be able to do this? Thank you so much!

I have never seen it anywhere until I went to a wedding at a mansion built in 1790 and they had done some demo in a room and found the EXACT same paper inside their walls! It's a little demonic (horned beasts, women with butcher knives to men's throats... real ugly stuff) but I was wondering if you knew of this at all? I can send you a picture of it... I can't find ANYTHING similar online no matter how much I google it! you can contact me at kristy@harlowfarmhouse.com<br />thanks!Kristyhttp://harlowfarmhouse.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-10882605958428629592009-10-01T09:51:23.890-04:002009-10-01T09:51:23.890-04:00Great post.

I have a folder of them that I found in a old paper lot I bought many years ago. They are on my list to use, I think I will make fabulous shades with them.

Years ago my former spouse and I had silhouettes cut. It was a fun commission. Now I would be afraid to be thus depicted in profile (incipient double chin). Now my idea of great silhouettes today are the disturbing ones by artist Kara Walker.An Aesthete's Lamenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09620941811191294750noreply@blogger.com
