My wife's aunt passed and she wound up with this horrible turquoise wool coat.

With an incredible silver fox collar....

Well, she hated the coat and was going to donate it. I scavenged the collar, donated the coat and prevailed upon my mother (the eclectic seamstress). I got me a trooper style silver fox fur hat. Almost looks Russian style it's so full. Can't wear the dang thing unless it's single digits (F) or less.

Dang Al Gore for inventing Global Warming!
To fish or not to fish? That's a stupid question!

Trapped this coyote in my back yard, skinned, fleshed, and tanned myself using a kit.  Had a lady from Alaska make the hat, Alaska Spirit Crafts is her business.  You can find her on facebook.  She made 2 hats from the 1 coyote, $75 each.  I thought she did a wonderful job.

I'm a free trapper, I'll trade my phlures with the highest bidder. Quote from Mountain Men and Charlton Heston.

I have a free trapper with a beaver pelt.

I wear it fall and winter.

Love it.
See ya on the ice,

I've got one from Russia. Heck if i know what kind of fur it is. All I do know is that it's black and warm as all get out!

Its dog fur.

Easy fellas.  That picture was taken 20 feet from my back door. 

Does Willie look like he's in distress?

Anyhow, I'd love to get a beaver hat and mitts made, just have to trap that beaver first.
