I've had this set for a couple years now. The mink was hit by a car and the creator harvested what could be used and gave them a new life. They sit on my alter now resting. I only wear these for special occasions.

 

I don't like bringing my skulls out unless it's a really good reason. I'm super respectful about animal skulls and protective of them. I give them a second life where they live their days with fragrances, plants, rocks, and beautiful sticks to decorate their resting places around my house where they are regularly cleaned and saged.

 

I either sage with sage from my garden, or my friends send me white sage they grow in their garden (Condor and Eagle Trading Post is their business, but, they send it to me personally. Literally brother and sister to me for a long time). Which reminds me, I need to call them.

My hat is one that my grandfather picked up at a flea market for me.  As he's dead now I plan to wear it until it falls apart (even though I prefer a flat crown.) I may get another one though soon.

 

The hatband on it is my belt from when I was seven that I later stained to be darker and put spikes on.  I have two other bands including the one that came with that hat, and another that my grandfather got me when I was 4 from a Native American store, which is another belt that's brown and has beads all over it forming a pattern.

I have some black Julbo Glacier sunglasses with round brown lenses that I quite like.  I don't wear them often enough though.  I should really get custom lenses cut for them.

 

I just got some Bluetooth earplugs on a cord.

 

I have a necklace with an arrowhead made out of polished tiger's eye that was my father's.  The chain I got when I was doing work for a jewelry store (along with a bracelet.)

I've been doing button up shirts more recently so I can wear my collection of bolo ties.  I have a few favorites of those.  One that my friend Todd gave me is a snake that doesn't have a clasp, rather it just wraps around the cord.  Another is a pewter skull with wings and rubies for eyes.  The aglets are also little skulls, though one of them is missing the ruby.  I got that at a flea market for $20ish back when I was in my early 20's.  Another is the first one I ever got that my father used to wear.

 

Does my Glock count?  Oh, I wear that on the belt I got from Lisa who works at Noir Leather like forever ago.  It's got fancy bits on it and the buckle was my fathers who got it from my grandfather.

I got some LED gloves recently with 4 LED's just behind each knuckle on each glove.  I must say they're pretty handy!

Oh, I also have some rings.  One was my grandfather's that's shaped like a belt and another is apparently an old wedding ring of my father's.

Finally my boots that my ex Jen got me.  They look great but my heels start to hurt if I stand in them for too long.  I need to get some that are less painful.  My 5.11 boots don't have that issue at all.  They also have a zipper on the side and  hidden pockets I never use for fear that whatever it is might fall out.  Theoretically they could hold things like a USB drive or a small spare .32 ACP magazine.

I cannot imagine that is easy or practical.  You just become living art?  Maybe if someone is disabled/paralyzed but even then you can usually cut off the limb and get a prosthetic.

 

This reminds me that I need to trim mine.  Though they can be useful for things like when I get an itch, but after a while it just gets hard to type/use a touchscreen.
