Deer Me

 While in Tucson I went to this museum full of stuffed real animals (the guys voted on going to this museum). And, gawd, there was even a room with my last name. The idea came to me to create a friendlier, happier version of what I saw. This could be great for a boy's room.

SUPPLY LIST
Creative Paperclay®
styrofoam
acrylic paints
brown paper
tree branches

 Cut your styrofoam to form the deer's head and start adding the Creative Paperclay® to shape the face.




















Add eyes and nose then start adding detail.























Paint the face with as much or as little detail as you wish. Add ears cut out of brown paper and you are done.Next drill holes in the top of the head to add the tree branches whether real or fake. You could even change out the branches with the season.

Dream in color and play with your whole heart.
