How do you think this piece would fit in with my overall decor?

Is it a bit much?

Art comes from within. Any input from us would turn this expression of your innermost feelings into a group project. Have some Absinthe, let the creativity flow naturaly.

I would screw only the horns onto the teal head, and then put that on top.

Actually, constructive criticism is an important part of developing creative ideas into expression, young grasshopper. The absinthe part comes early in the process, the real work is in the refinement of what comes from that.

I think the skull could use some cleaning if it's going to be used intact. Bleach it out white and polished looking, which I think will look pretty slick with the florescent orange. And at least then the mailman won't mind touching it, either.

I also like the Tealalope idea, but the horns might be a bit heavy to look right on a little teal head.

well, he was bound to find out at some point, whether he walked in and saw or heard it from his bedroom. in all honesty, this is probably the best case scenario.

Check out ebay for an idea of prices...looks like the going rate is around $25 or more. You have to find the right buyer that wants it as yard art or as man cave decor.

You'll think it's lovely artwork until your wife, postal worker, or you gets their favorite jacket caught on one of them antlers while checking the mail. :thumbsup: Great idea!

No Way, if jehler was my father I would not even be on here. Plus I think I'm older than him anyways.
