Paper pets
Remember making paper animals when you were young? Here's the chic, grown-up version:
With a photocopy machine, enlarge animal outlines to your desired size (you might need to join the pieces). Tape the patterns onto corrugated plastic board (available at craft shops like Art Friend) and cut. Slot in supports in the same material for the legs. For a designer touch, cover the board with patterned wallpaper using mounting spray.
