@Tre3hugger - Thanks! We get alot of processor waste during season and use as much as possible- leg bones get hooves removed for crafts, sinew removed/dried, hide taken off and tanned. Bone is dried for all sorts of projects including needles and sometimes buttons. If we ever get skulls, they can be cleaned as is or turned to buttons/fish hooks/and such. Hides can be hair-on or buckskin, and buckskin can be laces, bags, you name it. There's a whole lot to a deer people don't realize! Favorite craft has to be the new buckskin bag, as I'm really proud of how it turned out, but I still love making the bone needles.
