These are a cool alternative to having a real animal head trophy on a wall. It takes some patience and a willingness to learn to make these, but the materials are super cheap: cardboard and glue.
I’ve seen these made up as giraffes, elk, moose, etc. Start with something simple and learn as you go. These sell for a pretty good buck (pun intended) at gift shops. Get good at it & you could make some extra money. They make great gifts if you know what the recipient likes. If you can make it look like a team mascot you might be able to charge even more money.
These are in the natural color of the cardboard in the ones I’ve seen. They look more interesting that way, IMHO as you can see the various layers of cardboard. Very cool. This could be a good family project over the winter months, kind of like a puzzle that you work on together & then display.
