    Hand made sporrans

    So I finally finished my latest sporran, this makes 2 from scratch and one retrofit. Never done anything like this before.

    This is a store bought sporran to which I added a fur face and tassels.

    The second is a day sporran I built from scratch.

    This one has a removable change purse that attaches with Velcro and a chain for your keys. The inside is a little rough, but it was built for everyday use.

    The third is a hunting style sporran I built for my brother.

    This one is lined on the back and gusset with red satin while the inside of the front is finished in black leather. It also has a removable change purse, but this one attaches with 2 snaps and also has a chain for keys.

    Close up of the front detail.

    Thanks for looking.

    That is a really clever idea about the change purse and I like the Celtic cross as well.

    Very nicely done. Satisfying to make your own isn't it? I also am a fan of retrofitting a commercially made sporran too. Gives them a little something extra.
