Leopard Gourd Wall Hanging

This realistic cutout of a leopard's head frightened our pet cat so badly that she hissed and swatted at it when she saw it. It measures 7 inches from top of head to chin; 7 inches wide at the ears. The whiskers (made with cloth-covered florist wire) spread to about 9 inches wide. Its thickness is about 1 3/4 inches as it hangs from the wall. The ears are attached with glue and heavy kraft paper. Brads and picture wire on the back make it ready to hang. It is decorated by pyrography and painted with just a little acrylic paint, then finished with acrylic varnish.
