My Free Faux Deer Head

Good morning everybody.
 I've come to the conclusion that Pinterest
is the best (AND worse) website that I've found.
 Let me explain ...
 I see a picture like this
or
And then all of a sudden it's all I think about.
 I MUST have a faux deer head.
 But, I'm not gonna shell out the money to buy one.
So what's a girl to do?
 Why make one of course.
 I was given a wire lighted deer from my mom
 that worked but was REALLY rusted.
  A perfect victim.
 No money spent : )
I started by removing the lights then the head.

Vixen & Milo even helped supervise.
 Cleaned it a little, then spray painted it flat black.
 Then I wrapped it with jute twine leaving the antlers.
I attached it to the wall using an "L" bracket that I spray painted black
I think it looks pretty good above my free palette shelf.
 Not too shabby for free : )

I'm partying at:

That is a cool idea. We had one of those deers, too, but I think it got thrown out by hubby.

What a great idea! My mother has an entire herd of these- maybe she won't miss one little ole Bambi!
