Dave welcomes commissions to do customized papercuttings.  Personalized papercuttings make exceptional gifts.  Here are just a few ideas for customized papercuttings:

Weddings and Anniversaries
Dave has done a number of commissioned pieces featuring the bride and groom dancing, using as a background the sheet music for "their song." These make especially appropriate gifts for the first anniversary, which is, traditionally, the paper anniversary.  In addition, Dave has done several specialized papercuttings that incorporate the couple's wedding invitation.

Vehicles 
For someone who has a fondness for a particular make of car, boat, motorcycle, or aircraft, a papercutting of such a vehicle is an excellent gift idea.  Silhouetted boats are particularly attractive when placed on maps of the area on which they sail.

Houses and Other Buildings
Dave has also worked from photographs to create papercuttings of specific homes.  A more expansive option can add to a house cutting the phrase "Welcome to [Family Name]'s House" and incorporate items depicting that family's favorite pastimes and pets.  In addition, Dave has made customized papercuttings of other structures, such as religious institutions, university buildings, and barns.

Family Heirlooms 
Old photographs, business ledger sheets, or other vintage ephemera from your family can readily be incorporated into a papercutting that will help memorialize these meaningful items for generations. 

Babies 
For memorable baby gifts, Dave has cut out the baby's name, linking the letters of the name with floral designs or with animals whose own names start with the letters of the baby's name.
