I saw this picture on the ZGallerie website and immediately fell in love...
hmmm....such a sophisticated space...I especially loved this:
But not so much the $169.00 price tag...Reallly, Z Gallerie?..Really?...Anyways I found this one at Hobby Lobby for $4 with a 40% off coupon:
and now it looks like this:
It's amazing what a can of spray paint can do, isn't it?
More photo love:
Yes, it makes me happy, and I like that it's faux...no need for real dead animal heads on my bookcase/wall...I'm not 100% sure if this will be it's final place (I literally just took down the picture that was hanging there originally, and hung the skull on that same nail). I would love to hear your opinions though...
During that same Hobby Lobby spree I found this for $3.00 because of a 50% off sale:
It reminded me of this one that I have been lusting over for awhile at Anthropologie for $20.00:
Yeah, apparently I have a thing for elephants (evident here).
Of course it needed some help....Hmmm...what to do?...Oh, right what I always do. Spray paint to the rescue:
Yes, he will make a perfect perch for our keys and a light jacket, and he is a better scale for this space (he is a couple inches smaller than the Anthropologie one)...and quite possibly (when I buy some more) will be perfect for paint swatches in my office....
Now, I must go see what else I can spray paint...No worries, I was just joking about the dog...Maybe...

O.M.G. I've been obsessed with that Metallic skull from Z-gallerie forever and never thought of this! I'm so stealing this idea, thanks for the inspiration! Love your blog!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Steal away :)

ReplyDeleteThanks for reading Ellen! I love new followers!
DeleteWhy have I never thought of that? I've seen the ever so popular metallic skull at Zgallerie and I've seen these skulls 50% off at Hobby Lobby before, but never made the connection. I guess what I'm saying is thanks, leaving for Hobby Lobby now :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure I just beat ya to it :). Good luck/you're welcome/thanks for reading!
DeleteVery cool!

DeleteAlso, normal earflap period hats have ordinarily been reasonable, but not have they been so stylish.
ReplyDeleteIt can fit any casual situation and also for
all age teams. Ordinarily this has thicker
content that gives insulation this sort of as fleece and wool.
Fork out for reputed outlets to assure the excellence of the merchandise.
