About this Product
Decorate your space with this lovely Deer wall hanging, designed for all nature enthusiasts! Perfect for adding a touch of wilderness charm to your dining, living room or entry way! It is uniquely crafted from upcycled, weathered fencing, and promises to resonate with your love of the great outdoors.
To create an authentically rustic look, I use weathered wood fencing. Each board is uniquely distressed, perfect for enhancing the ambiance of a lodge, cabin, or lake home. To prepare the pallet. I lightly sand down each board leaving much of the natural patina created by the outdoor elements over time. Slight cracks & nail heads are left "as is" for added rustic texture.
I make the rustic pallet myself and then draw the deer artwork, using wood burning techniques, also known as pyrography. This lovely deer is burned stands proud and is looking back over it's sholder. Within the deer outline is a serene pine forest scene, complete with charming birds perched delicately on it's antlers and back. Wood-burned art creates a lovely earthy brown color that adds lots of warmth to your room!
The wood boards are attached with canvas straps down the back.
Measuring 27 inches tall by 25 inches wide, this artwork arrives rolled and ready to hang with a sawtooth hanger attached. Simply unroll it, find a sturdy nail, and let this handmade creation bring a touch of woodland tranquility to your space.

Meet the Maker
Hello friends! My name is Christy and l welcome you to my shop :)
In my handmade shop, I feature unique pieces of home decor that add a little rustic and a little whimsy to your home.
I began my handmade journey of wood-burning artwork on reclaimed wood. The beautiful brown color in my artwork is created with pyrography, "drawing with fire". It is the perfect complement to the reclaimed wood that I use to create rustic wall hangings. All the artwork is wood-burned by hand, using pyrography tools.
When I discovered the incredibly versatile dried gourds, it was love at first sight! I instantly added them to my creative routine. I've always adored pumpkin carving, and here was a similar natural vegetable that will for many years without the shelf life of a fresh pumpkin. The dried gourd shells are very hard and perfect for carving and pyrography!
I use the gourds to create whimsical fall pumpkin characters with a ton of personality. I also enjoy turning the gourds into decorative bowls, vases, and vessels. Each gourd shape is unique, so each gourd piece is a one-of-a-kind!
How it’s Made
I have an ongoing collection of weathered wood that I keep. To begin this project I gather reclaimed wood fencing to create a pallet of weathered boards. I prep each board by lightly sanding the wood, and making sure they fit together nicely. I like to leave some of the natural patina from years spent outdoors. Slight cracks and nail heads intact to enhance the rustic texture.
Next, I attach the boards securely using canvas straps on the back, so it lays flat against your wall when you hang it. Using the art of pyrography, I "draw with fire", burning the intricate deer and pine forest artwork onto the wood. This technique creates a beautiful, earthy brown color that adds to the piece's woodland charm adding a lot of lovely warmth to your space.
To complete the look and protect the artwork, I apply a clear wax finish, enhancing the natural beauty of the wood.
If you're interested in a custom size to fit your space perfectly, simply send me a message. I'm always happy to create a personalized piece of wall art that reflects your vision and complements your decor.
This handmade deer wall hanging is a unique statement piece that brings the beauty of nature into your home, adding a touch of rustic elegance to any room or mountain retreat.

Commonly Asked Questions
1. Can I order a customized gourd character? Yes! I am happy to work with you on a personalized gourd for you. Just reach out and we can chat about your idea.
2. Can I order the hats separately? Not at this time. I use the coordinating gourd top to make the hat base. So the gourd top/hat fits the gourd exactly. I am contemplating making hats separately. Let me know if this might be a good idea... I'd love your input!
3. Can I use the gourds to decorate outside? These gourds are dried, but I wouldn't recommend letting them get wet with the weather elements. It's best to keep these as "indoor gourds".
4. Can I name my gourd? Sure! If you would like to name a gourd just let me know. This would fall into a custom piece, so I would just need a week or so to create this gourd for you.
5. Are there additional charges for custom gourds? This depends on the request. Please just send me a note with your request and I can let you know.
