Bone Necklace

While visiting my sis in Kansas, we got to working on some jewelry. I wanted to make a necklace for my voo-dooey witch costume I've been putting together. Here is my first attempt:

I'm calling the pendant the skull of a "Spiny Turkish Water Sprite". It's made with turkey bones I saved from last Thanksgiving. Had to boil them for quite a long time to get them clean. I think it is too white. I probably need to stain the bone to get a natural looking yellow color.
