Just Faux Fawn
Friday, January 21, 2011 at 8:46AM
I've just finished hanging these faux taxidermy heads around our study! They add such great depth and interest, and really pop against the dark blue-grey walls. Call me a freak, but I'm absolutely fascinated with real-deal taxidermy. But if hanging dead animals on your walls feels like overkill, these modern interpretations are a brilliant way to incorporate trophies into your home.

Just faux fawn, that's so witty! Where can one find these fancy thiings?
@Amy & Rebecca - I'll post pictures in a few weeks, once we get a desk and some curtains!
@Caroline - Mine are from ZGallerie (the moose was a Christmas gift), but you can also find them at Williams Sonoma Home, Michelle Varian, and Piecesinc.com. Hope that helps :)
Are you an interior designer?
Did you put up ur's yet.?
I will take faux taxidermy over a once live animal with glass eyeballs staring at me, possibly saying, "This is the summation of my life."
On a more serious note, I like the contemporary interpretation. Its a great juxtaposition of modern or elegant and rustic. A stark white piece is both feminine and masculine. Me likey.
Thanks for including our space. Actually just got some other cool resin antlers in you'll have to check out. Uploading to the site soon. Great blog!
