After cleaning up my spurs I would always throw them in a drawer until I thought I would come up with some way of displaying them. Well this week has been that time to get something done with them. I cut 6' lengths of Suede lace, threaded some wooden beads on in-between each spur and I am using them for window trim.
I had some with the skin & scales still on so I stripped that after letting them soak in hot water with Dawn soap for a couple of days, I wire wheeled the bone with my die grinder and painted them with a hammer tone copper paint, buffed the spur and added boiled linseed oil to the spur itself like I do all of them after normal cleaning. I only did one strand of 50 like that and left the other strands natural.
