Metal bookends for my sister Karla

I wanted to make some bookends for my sister Karla. They have a bookshelf that holds a lot of nature type items. Like quail, old Jim Beam bottles with nature scenes. They live at the base of a Juniper covered hill. They have a beautiful horse ranch there. The deer roam all over that hill and yard. I decided that deer bookends would be a great addition to their shelf. Here is what I came up with using just odds and ends of scrap metal.

It's a white tail trophy buck. Suppose to look like it is on a ridge. I roughed edged the metal base. They can choose to paint it, or leave as is.


I really enjoy working with metal. Jan can't believe that it relaxes me. Here you can see the rough edges better. I hope she likes it. [ironman]
