DIY Animal Bust

Over this winter break when I have been in Corvallis, I spend much of my time alone. Which is not a bad thing at all. I am thankful that I have found contentment being alone (a skill which the Lord forced me to learn...that's for another post.) These past few days I had a large amount of solo time on my hands, and what's a girl to do when she got a lot of time to herself?
C-R-A-F-T.

My sister, Kristin, LOVES all things Anthropologie and since she got married this past May (wooooo!) she became quite fond of the paper mache animal busts they sold- she has the ram and the rhino! They are AMAZING! In the spirit of it being a new year, I decided that I, despite being not the most artistic person in the world, should attempt to make one such animal bust. I had no idea what I was getting myself into.
