    Yes, Deer. - Buy and Sell All Things Handmade at Etsy.com!

    Hello everyone,

    It’s your favorite guest blogger back with another fabulous decorating idea. At the end of last year I was an intern for a wonderful band called The Dresden Dolls. They were in the process of looking for some unique artists to make some rockin’ band merchandise for them. That is when I discovered the website www.etsy.com. Have any of you seen this site? If you are crafty and love all things handmade, this is the site for you.

    That is exactly where I found this week’s Home and Garden find. I am a vegetarian and am against animal cruelty of any kind. Hunting for sport is something else I am not a big fan of.

    That’s why I was so happy to find this artist who makes these incredibly beautiful and unique mounted deer heads out of wallpaper and resin (which is just a fancy word for plastic).

    Etsy.com - RubysLounge

    For those of you not familiar with Etsy, each artist on the site has their own profile and their own store where they can sell their creations. This artist’s store name is Ruby’s Lounge.

    Take a look at these:

    Ruby's Lounge - Deer Head - Home Decor

    Black & White Deer Head

    Deer Head - Etsy.com - Ruby's Lounge

    Colorful Deer Head

    Wolf Head - Ruby's Lounge - Etsy.com

    Look at this! The Big, Bad Wolf!

    Ruby proudly advertises that “No deer were harmed in the making of this craft!”. :)

    Each deer is made to order, so allow 2-3 weeks for production. Each one is around $345. To purchase or browse Ruby’s Lounge for a custom made Deer Head, click here.

    These are the only deer heads I definitely wouldn’t mind displaying in my home.
