Default What to do with horns

I have a couple of nice moose sheds and was wondering if anyone has any cool ideas etc that I could build with them.
I have heard of making chandeliers as well as candle holders (burners) out of them.

Thanks

I saw a real nice peace of art work made from a moose horn. they drawed out a pic. of a deer maybe a moose and background with the trees. then took a dermil tool,cut away all the excess horn.left the animal and trees standing. with the main part of the horn around the sean.
I am sure it took many hrs. of work,but was really a nice work.think about a moose horn with a sean in the middle with the background removed and the animals and trees and ground left attacthed to the main beam.

it is sorta like a scremshaw sean on a knife,with the handle beeing the horn.if you can figure what I am talking about.

you could use them as pooper scoopers when walking your dog. you could beat down a would be robber with them. paint them red and flag aircraft with them. back scratchers. john boat anchors. ping pong paddels. boomerangs. Let me know if you need more ideas.
