| How do you guys display your trophy buckles? I'm open to hanging them on the wall, or displaying them on a table. Pictures would be great. |

I told my hubby we should try to do a display somehow in my trailer but it seems like there's plenty of other projects that need our attention more than buckles. I have 1 buckle I wear and the rest just sit. I did buy a Montana Silver purse that holds a trophy buckle so I put another one on there. |

I have seen wagon wheels that are used as a coffee table and to display buckles, so darn cool, and they would mix in old bits and a few arrow heads. |

Location: Kansas | My husband gives his team roping buckles to friends, nieces, nephews, grateful kids who treasure them for some reason. Beats the heck out of trying to shelve them or store. Well, we do have the more beautiful ones displayed over the fireplace. |

| I've seen some people have them attached to their breast collars. I always thought that was pretty interesting.

| I will try and get my daughter to help get a picture up tomorrow - but I took a large coffee and end table several years ago and cut the center out and made a shadow box out of it. Then put cowhide down and had a glass top cut for them, the coffee table holds about 15 or 20 buckles and the end table holds about 8 or 10. We just lift up the glass top to add and rearrange the buckles. The coffee table is always the first thing people notice when they come to our house. |

Location: The South | I am so glad you made this thread! Perfect timing, we were just talking about this at my house. We don't have anything on our walls, and I'd like to display my buckles somehow. Right now they're all crammed in a trophy case at my dad's house. |

I'm with you...I only have one (well 2, but one hasn't been made and given to me yet) so I wear mine on a belt and may just get one of those buckle frames. I showed Hunt Seat Equitation and jumpers, so I have a BUNCH of ribbons, medals, and trophies that are in a box somewhere at my parents. Some of them I gave away, too. The kids think my trophies are cool...I would rather have buckles that I can WEAR. LOL |
