Saw it. Pinned it. Did it.

I have been obsessing over this link up.

Here's the original


And here's my version:


I bought the canvas at Michael's & used a 50% off coupon, (go me!) google searched a deer silhouette, printed it out, then cut it out, and found gold glitter in my classroom. At first I planned on tracing the deer on the blank canvas but then decided to just put glue all over the cut-out and then modge podge it to the canvas, and then voila! Even the Mister likes it, a total win-win, thanks pinterest!

   Up until recently I thought having antlers in your home was tacky. Now, I am fascinated by the different ways used to display these beautiful works of art. Blake is happy because he loves animals (the trophy kind) and when I asked him where I could buy antlers he quickly found several places. I am not interested in killing a deer for it's antlers to be displayed in my home. I would prefer to either find some that have been shed, or buy one from a deer that died of natural causes.

   I love how anthroplogie has painted the antlers and wrapped them in yarn. I know out at my parents house I could possibly find some that have been shed, but, while shopping over the weekend, Blake and I found three great looking sets at a flea market. The antler decor is my next project for the house.
