can I create a desktop icon for a server I connect to at start?

I have a Nas data server. At startup the computer connects to it automatically.

It appears on the sidebar of Finder under shared, but I would like to have an icon appear for it on my desktop. I would like to open it with a double mouse click as I do an external drive that's connected, and not have to walk through opening a finder window.

Is this possible? What would be the steps to do it?
