Was just getting some wings out I had frozen to seperate and prepare to make fletching and found I had 7 or 8 tails that are folded and frozen.  What do you guys do with the tails?  I already have several tails fanned and mounted.

I fletch arrows with them. They are a bit flimsier than primary wing feathers but work fine and look real good. I use primary, secondary and tail feathers for fletchings.   Pat

Individual tail feathers attached to a short string of trade beads would look sharp on a back, side, or hip quiver.

yep,
one of the prettiest fall wreaths you can make is with wild turkey tail feathers...Google that and I bet you can get directions...they're AWESOME looking and very unique compared to the ones with greenery on them.

Your wife can use it from Halloween on through New Year's.
