Faux Animal Heads: Not A Faux Pas Anymore

November 3, 2011

I know what you are thinking, especially my vegetarian friends, what is a faux animal head? Well, it’s just that! No more taxidermy faux pas, instead faux animal heads! Lately, statuesque heads have been a popping up in the most unusual of places and that is exactly why I like them. They not only add character, but also a bit of whimsy and humor.

Cardboard lends itself to a “not-so-serious” animal sculpture.

These sheep heads look hand crafted, adding a 3D element to the
otherwise flat wall decor.

Even in a serene space such as this bedroom, 
the wood deer heads add interest and a hint of the unexpected.

In a subtle way, the set of horns breaks up
the art around the bed.

Used in a more “traditional” setting but is made of wood,
not deer!

Against the geometric wallpaper, the faux head softens
the fireplace.

Now, what do you think about these faux heads? Trend or classic sculpture?
