Bones and antlers excite me

I made an amazing finding from the deep forest about a week ago. I was just doing my thing (planting those damned small trees) as I suddenly discovered something really nice and white in my sight. There was a skeleton of a reindeer, probably killed by a wolverine or a bear. Anyhow, I couldn' t resist these pieces of art and took them with me. I decided to wask them well and make something nice and pretty out of them. Any suggestions?

 This is how I started my project. I really don't have a clue how to do this right, but I simply put bones into a bowl of warm water and then added some really kick-ass cleaner. Chloride would be the best, I think.
 Here they are. All cleaned up nicely. There was one giant beetle who sneaked in the house with bones, eww. I let Mr. Hedggie eat it!

So pretty. I have some kind of a altar in my mind, these bones and some big candles on a black tablecloth. What do you think?

  1. Oh my...! <3 now that's something spectacular! I wish I could find some antlers in polish forests too, but it's sooooo hard, or even impossible.

    Do You have any tips on how to clean the bones? Bleach?
