My bone and skull collection has been growing alot over the past year or so and I have been wanting to organize a spot or cabinet in my home to put them all. On a whim the other day I decided it was the day to make it happen. I found a shelf I had stored in my garage that was painted bright yellow, I rummaged through the paints that were left behind from the previous owners of our house to see what I could paint it with, and decided on the white that was the same paint for our trim. Funny b/c I never though I would intentionally paint something white in my life, but I actually love it.
All of my skulls and bones have either been found in the woods, or given to me from my brother or friends who also found them in the woods. There are a few I did not include on the shelf, including a 2 deer skulls, a horse skull, and obviously my longhorn skull. I love the variation of skulls that has come into my life. My favorite is still my little turtle skull my brother gave me for christmas this past year. He has given me my best pieces and just adore them.
I'm just excited they have a home now. Any other bone collectors out there? Do you have photos of your arrangements? I love to peek into others curiosity cabinets...
