    Spanky New Sporrans

    http://www.craftycelts.com/celtic_sporran.html

    If only they came in black. <sigh>

    I have dealt with the company in the past, although it has been a few years, and they were very good about shipping on the schedule they told me up front. I also know several people who have their products as well, and have never heard any complaints, except that they don't (didn't?) ship to Canada and we had to ship to someone we knew in the US.
    “…Whut’s it we’re famous for?”
    “Stealin’!” “And what else, lads?” “Fightin’!”
    “And what else?” “Drinkin!” “And what else?”
    There was a certain amount of thought about this, but they all reached the same conclusion.
    “Drinkin’ and fightin’!”

    Really neat. Wished I could find out where they get the hardware.

    Very nice, yet, I bet you could take a regular "purse" and turn it into a sporran that would look REALLY similar to these...for a lot less cost!

    Gorgeous, but $150 dollars for a pouch barely large enough to put my hand in?
    I'ld rather get one of the pins, and use it as the flap button on one of Turpin's sporrans.
    I am easily moved for sympathy for dogs, far more so than for humans, because dogs do not understand. There is no way to explain that you will return, that the vet will make it all better, that they cannot go shooting today because that is not what today is about. They cannot work out that their misery is finite and will some time end, and so their misery is magnified.

    I suspect that they make it, since their main line is jewelry. I believe Celtic Croft carries some of their wares...

    I recently ordered a brooch from Celtic Croft that looks like one of the Crafty Celts' items. So my brooch may go from SC to MN to SC.

    I saw their wares at the Stone Mt. Games. Very high quality as far as I could tell. I don't remember seeing any sporrans, though. And they do make it themselves. They were making some of it right there.
