Was lookin at this for the imminent arrivals nursery, but its from a gallery in the US and its a bit expensive.

Anyone skilled enough to recreate one of these maybe even in bright orange or white, so could even be done in plastic or cheaper wood?

a friend of mine made a moose head like that but made it out of corrugated cardboard. all you need are sharp scissors and a good eye.
