Mounting a Turkey fan without a plaque?

Hello all, I'm looking for ideas on displaying tail fans on a wall without buying or making a plaque. These are going out in the garage so i don't really want anything too fancy. I currently have them fleshed out and pinned and covered with borax so I'm a few weeks away from the finished product. I was thinking about getting some kind of epoxy or bondo and covering the quills if i could find something black in color, just for a more finished look. Any ideas?

Did my first turkey fan with cardboard that had black clothe covering it. Hot glued clothe on. Worked great and cheap.

Put a drywall screw into the back, loop a short piece of wire around it to hang it from.

If you want to use an epoxy, JB Weld works good. They will last a long time. It will be a real dark gray when dry. Also deters the mice from eating on them. The only thing is that it takes almost the whole two tubes to do one fan.
And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Acts 16:30-31

I hang a lot of fans with these, cheap and simple. Picked them up at Walmart for a few buck and hold 8 fans each, easy to hang too. I have added a NWTF license plate on one and a CODY Calls sign to the front to dress them up :)

Great idea!  I have a fan problem myself!  I can't bear to throw one away and they have added up over the years.

This looks like a good option. Thank you! What exactly is it? Is it office supplies for folders and papers?
