Antlers for me..

There is nothing like having a free day.  A day that is yours.  No hassles, no work, no interruptions.  Today was that day for me!   I've been flicking through a book called Craftydermy by Tracey Benton lately and have been gaining some inspiration from the beautiful works displayed throughout its pages.  Today I attempted to make my own mounted antlers!   
The process was quite easy to follow, although Tracey does mentioned making the initial antler shape with newspaper, I found aluminium foil way more easier to manipulate.  Once I was happy with the shape of my antlers I wrapped them with masking tape to secure the offshoots.  After the masking tape I was ready to start the paper mache!








The Im currently waiting for my second layer of paper mache to dry and intend to do four.  I am hanging out for my RDO on friday to be able to finish it! 

Have a great start to your week!
