What creative things do you do with bones?

We make all kinds of art with bones

As far as how to process the bones for crafting... here is one easy way if you have a lot of ant mounds. Chain the bone to a heavy brick or cement block. This prevents the bone from being dragged off by a predator.  Then stick the bone in the ant mound.  Make sure to jam it in as deep as possible.  Be careful on this step because it really ticks off the ants.  I said chain the bone to the brick because if you use a rope especially a rope made from natural materials the ants will eat the rope. Use chain and all the ants will strip from the bone is meat and gristle

I have tons of these, I haven't figured out what to do with them yet, though.

They are nutritious, but like others, I'm worried about the smell and attracting critters. I throw them in my biochar.  It's a great solution for me.

I make naalbinding needles.

I recently purchased an old amish farm. He processed animals.  I found a HUGE pile of bones, at least 10 cow skulls, deer skulls, other bones, I dont know what to do with it all.

Connie, If you don't mind handling them a regular cow skull can bring in a 100.00 bill. Look on Etsy. A friend burns lasers designs on them and sells them for as much as 500.00 depending on design complexity.
