This is so brilliant! I wish I were crafty! Great idea.

Fantastic idea and very well executed! I too am looking forward to modelling shots. BTW I think Allan should have no problem finding himself some fur where he is located LOL!

You're right, periogirl. He could just go out in the woods and trap a little furry critter for his collar!

This is brilliant! kudos to you for thinking of it - now I'm going to have to try it. Love the colors in your H scarf btw - can you post a pic of it? I know what you mean about Atlanta not being the optimal place to get a lot of use out of your scarves and shawls, so I hope you get a nice cold snap so you can wear it and show it off!

Florasun, as promised, here are a few shots of "Tout Cuir" by C. Latham, which was issued in 2002. I don't know the color way number, but it's predominantly orange, gold, wine and brown. It shows the leathers and exotics that Hermes uses, as well as the hand tools used to make our beloved bags, and a few of the finished products. I was lucky to have found it on eBay last summer for a pittance.

I love the detail, right down to the pores on the croc skin!
