TAXIDERMY: It's not just for "Mother" Anymore
I've always found taxidermy really kind of gross. It's got something to do with Norman Bates and his mother, and something to do with some friends of mine leaving some antlers outside for months hoping that they would be cleaned by bugs or something. Yech! However, I am smitten with these images below. While I don't advocate having Spot stuffed after he passes on and placing him in your hallway, you might start with some faux antlers for fun!
This is the most intense taxidermy experience I've ever had. I wish I had a picture that showed the walls of the Buckhorn Saloon and Museum better - check out the back wall - the entire joint is covered in animal heads. It's a vegan's worst nightmare, but hey, it's in Texas, so that kind of overrides everything!
Designers have taken antlers and heads the Stella McCartney route lately created some fun faux. I think I prefer this kind of "taxidermy."
I'm not sure if it's good feng shui to have a dead animal this close to the bed, but it makes for a stunning picture.
