ANTLERS

Hours Years of poring over pictures of beautifully designed spaces has led me to one conclusion: I am a fan of antlers as accent pieces. Antlers have been an ongoing increasing trend in magazines and online and I think it is all due to their versatility. 

Antlers feel as appropriate in rural, country schemes as they do in more minimal, contemporary ones. Their popularity appeals to youth's current affinity for all things gothic and macabre (taxidermy and gore have almost taken over my Tumblr dashboard) and also speaks to the classic tradition of mounting trophies from successful safaris or hunting excursions of a classier time. 

But enough hypothesizing. Let's let the images speak for themselves!
