From feltidermy to plushidermy to woodidermy, there are many ways to mount an animal in your home - without harming any animals in the process! <div class='call_to_action'> <!-- gallery teaser --><a href="/6066226?page=0,0,0">View Slideshow ›</a><!-- /gallery teaser --> </div> <hr class=space> http://www.casasugar.com/6066226#comment Etsy animal motifs taxidermy Etsy Finds Mon, 09 Nov 2009 10:00:13 -0800 CasaSugar http://www.casasugar.com/6066226 http://www.casasugar.com/5678652 <a href="http://www.casasugar.com/5678652"><img width=120 height=160 src='http://media.onsugar.com/files/ed2/192/1922794/42_2009/il_430xN.94756664.large.jpg'></div></a> <div class='gallery_thumbnail'> <a href='/5678652'></a> </div> I spent a good part of this past weekend hanging out near the ocean, and while there were no whale or walrus sightings, I was inspired to see how these cool creatures could dress up my home.

Rocchetti has made many other well-upholstered, blend-in-anywhere pieces of furniture, but these four sofas are definitely exceptions to that. I'm not sure where you'd put any of these pieces. Maybe Siegfried and Roy need a tiger sofa for their Vegas digs? Or perhaps a Greek architecture aficionado is dying for a replication of the Colosseum in sofa form? While the company's website asserts that "Rodolfo Rocchetti handmade articles are all exceptional, exclusive, refined, and tasteful," I'm not sure if I can get on board with that last adjective. These are definitely unusual, but a black panther sofa with chain around its neck is not my idea of good taste. What do you think of them? And where do you imagine them residing?</p> <p><div class='gallery_thumbs ' ><div class=title><!-- gallery teaser --><a class=photo-count href='/gallery/528257'>View 4 Photos ›</a><!-- /gallery teaser --></div><ul></ul></div></p> http://www.casasugar.com/gallery/528257#comment sofa animal motifs weird furniture Fri, 23 May 2008 05:30:01 -0700 CasaSugar http://www.casasugar.com/gallery/528257
