When you’ve been a blogger for awhile, you get lots of pitches for product reviews. While this might sound great, only a handful are ones I’d consider writing about.
Awhile back, though, I found an e-mail in my Inbox from a company called Near and Deer, inquiring whether I’d like to try one of their faux deer heads. Now, I think you’ll agree, that’s not something you hear every day. And, since I hadn’t yet indulged in the ‘faux taxidermy’ decorating trend, I was intrigued.
Faux taxidermy has been all the rage in decorating in recent years. I love the personality statement that a set of (fake) antlers makes in a room. They’re such a great mix of modern chic and rustic cozy. I’ve swooned over many room photos with them; I just wasn’t sure how a set of antlers would mix with my own decor scheme.
And then this guy arrived in the mail…
Faux Tamidermy Deer Head – Near & Deer
And I was all, “Where have you been all my life?”
Instant deer love.
The quality of this piece is great, and he came very carefully and cleverly packaged to protect his gorgeous antlers.
Now he hangs above our fireplace mantel, taunting me to give him a plaid scarf or a feather boa. All in good time, deer. 😉
If you’ve been thinking of adding a guy like this to your own decor, I’d recommend stopping by Near and Deer’s Etsy shop. They have some quirky, colorful pieces, as well as gorgeous gold and metallic ones. Oh, and if you’re not into deer (and why wouldn’t you be?), you’ll find moose and other rustic decor too. If you purchase, use the coupon code POPOFPRETTY10 to get a discount.
Here are just a few of my faves. Can you tell I’m crushing on gold these days?
That’s all for now my deers.
I know, stop already with the lame deer references, right?
Whatever you say, deer.

Until next time,
