I collect skulls, bleach them, and use them as garden ornaments.

It started out as a kind of respect while out hunting, if I'm going to kill an animal I'm taking as much meat as I can, then the skull as a kind of honoring gesture. Then some random beach finds got added in.
I also have started tanning hides, so that doesn't go to waste either. I've just finished a rabbit skin blanket for my daughter who absolutely adores it and keeps rubbing the fur on her face.
Maybe when summer rolls around next and I want go spend more time outside I'll try some scrimshaw on one and see how it goes.
