I'm trying to get up the courage...and thinking about what to mount it on and where to put it...kinda have a plant-hoarding space problem ya know Whistling
I have a neato hunk of driftwood--but it's too big

right now, it (I think there are three) is in a broken clay pot on top of a book shelf (can't really see the broken part -heh)

I am pondering using a long horn that I have...somehow... and flip-flopping the shelves...
I kinda like the idea of a staghorn on a longhorn Hilarious!
Have you ever grown them on bone?
I think the actual bone of the horn would look pretty cool, with all the little holes for the vasculature...but it would be kinda heavy and I might regret that...the keratin casing is hollow without the bone, would be easy to drill and much lighter, but much less attractive...unless I can figure out how to polish it up or something or accept the weathered look...
or go wood hunting...
