I have a lovely new friend on my wall. He hasn't got a name yet but maybe he should have. He is not the little fella from the photo at the top of the page. Well I hope he isn't anyway!
One day he will go and live in the Fox and Feather shop. But I am a bit worried he might scare people. He is a nice fox, I don't know... is taxidermy good or bad?
I bought him from a little old man in Wales. I saw it on his stall and thought he was cool (the fox, but actually the old man was pretty cool too as it turned out) . I didn't have any money, so he let me take it if I promised to send him a cheque in the post! What a very lovely man indeed. Apparantly I have an honest face. Yey!
So now the fox and his dinner are mine. I sent a cheque and all is good.
But is taxidermy good or bad? Let me know, before I scare off all my customers....

I like the taxidermy, and the fox is very well done, animals are often road kill etc that get stuffed.
ReplyDeleteBring it on I say!! Its already dead and better to be proudly on display on your shop wall than gathereing dust in some old man's garage. Even if it was killed in a horrific manner, we dont need to worry about that do we! Surely... ;) Dont know if you remember in our attic at our old house in green lane we had a similar fox's head (minus the bird)which me and my sis were very attached to as kids, probably not the most PC toy, but we loved that fox! I think it would be rude not to put him on display.
ReplyDeleteOh, and i'm loving your ideas for fox and feather, I must admit probably not the most clued up on women's fashion, but I know what I like and I totally see you having an amazing shop! Hopefully I will be able to visit it one day. Hope you are all good Clare, good luck. Erica xoxox
