Thankfully Merikay MacKenna has just the solution - stuffed fake animal head sculptures. Not only can this wonderful artist recreate your favourite animal's head (listed by continent of extraction no less), she can also whip together fantasy creatures and dinosaurs. My faves - which were a real tough list to pick - are listed below:
Unicorn: with braided metallic hair, gold plastic horn and pink hand-painted nostrils
Gorilla: this mighty creature comes in a frame replete with rubber foliage
Pig: I cannot make this any funnier (click image to make bigger and laugh more)The great thing about the internet is that this crazy lady would have sat in obscurity for her whole life without a website, but now she's running a questionable business due to her questionable talent. So next time you can't think of the ideal gift, think of the ideal stuffed fake animal head sculpture and send that instead.

that pig thing is pretty funny. Who would put a pig up on their wall? A dinosaur I can understand, but a pig seems too common. Maybe we can get that dinosaur or the unicorn and put it in our kitchen. Thank you.
Hi Ro! Thank you for introducing me to the wonderful world of Merikay! I've got an order in for the gold hatchling dragon - it's coming out of its egg and Merikay says it's "available for immediate adoption!" - Tom will love it in his study. Did you see the picture of the actual artist wearing one of her amazing creations? http://www.animalhead.com/wornzbrabg.html
Classic.
Get out of town no I didn't see her sporting the latest in zebra appendages...that's a smart look
