    Funny you should mention that - I saw some really nice wolf rugs w/full heads the other day, and foxes ... the reindeer would have been overkill, though.
    You'll just have to wait and see.

    As there is no option stating "forget the full mask sporran so you don't need to worry about what to hang it with" I think I will pass on this one...

    One skunk sporran - two leather straps. A black strap, with a silver buckle in back, for dressy affairs, evenings, or black belt & shoes. A brown strap, with a brass buckle in back, for all other informal or daywear, or to blend with a weathered tartan. Both straps are from "recycled" thrift store purses. The skunk pelt appears black and white from any distance, but up close a lot of the hairs are actually brown. It goes extremely well with both black and brown leather.

    Even if Canuck has a vested interest in his sugestion, he's right. I never thought of that, but the braid would look just as good as a chain.
