  • From innovative projects to classroom performances and even skill building exercises, silhouette paper can revolutionize the way you define paper in your home and classroom. Paper silhouettes are beautiful and breathtaking. Start with a simple subject matter, and let kids cut out their own paper silhouettes. Mount to a contrasting color and frame these striking portraits when completed. Paper silhouettes are an extremely popular party attraction, as well. The stark black and white contrast makes images more vivid and scenes come alive. For this reason, many people use silhouette paper to put on miniature performances and dramas.

    For a change of pace from your regular reading routine, have children create and act out a story or scene from a book you've just read together. This will not only get more kids involved in reading than before, but will also make the story and concepts more real for the children.

    Craft intricate geometric designs by folding your silhouette paper in various directions. The color contrast makes each angle and line stand out boldly, making forms seem more complicated than they really are. Use silhouette paper to make dramatic book covers or bulletin board displays, as well. The beautiful matte finish of our silhouette paper is sure to be used time and time again to make projects and assignments more exciting and inviting to your kids. Get your Hygloss silhouette paper today, you'll be glad you did.

    silhouette paper October 19, 2011
    Reviewer: Steven Thompson from Urayasu, Japan  
    All the silhouette artists ( and I know many) feel the same about this inferior paper. There was a day 15 years back when we had high quality paper to cut on. Jodi Carr is right on her evaluation of Hygloss silhouette paper but I could add a few more frustrating examples...separation of the fold, paper quality that wouldn't hold the scissor blades in place, paper quality varies, trimming is next to impossible ,etc.
    As for Joe Bagley...your work is excellent so that is why I am so confused why you would give this paper such a high rating. Your web site says you are in your 20's so without trying to sound cute maybe you just haven't worked on the paper that we have had in the past.

    Bad batch of silhouette paper June 8, 2011
    Reviewer: Jodi Carr, silhouette artist from San Jose, CA United States  
    The current batch of silhouette paper is of inferior quality. Splintery bits  are visible on the white side; they render it impossible to make crisp detailed cuts. It the current paper curls dramatically when adhesive is applied.

    Previously, the the Hygloss silhouette paper I purchased was of good quality but unfortunately something has changed for the worse.

    It would be fine for kindergarten projects but not suitable for professional artists.

    Best paper for silhouette and papercut art! May 25, 2011
    Reviewer: Joe Bagley from Dorchester, MA United States  
    I have been papercutting for 15 years. In 2007 Hygloss silhouette paper was recommended to me, I made the switch, and I've never used another paper.

    It has an extremely deep black color, with an almost soft feel that keeps it from being shiny.  They paper itself has extremely small pulp making corners cut extremely cleanly.  

    The paper is strong enough to stand up to rigorous cutting and extremely thin lines, but very thin so your hand does not tire quickly.  

    I can not recommend this paper enough, and all silhouette and black papercut artists should immediately switch to Hygloss Silhouette Paper.
