Inter-changeable Sporran Tassels

I agree. I'm debating whether to punch a hole in the two outer ribbed panels and add two more to fill the front with 5 tassels. I believe I can punch the holes high enough so they will be hidden under the flap and follow the incline from the center and also keep the holes hidden when I remove the tassels and put the leather ones back on.

It's worth a try, but i think it might be overkill. obviously, before you punch the hole you might try a temporary attachment to evaluate the effect before making any holes.

on the subject of mixing, i think a white tassel as the center of three would look good on the black sporran, or if you use five tassels alternate them (whether three black or three white i couldn't say).

Finally got the pics of the white and brown tassels.

I'll try the white with my dress sporran this weekend and see how it looks.

These are really great looking. I don't know which combination I like best so it's a great idea to have them interchangable. I wouldn't mind the same conversion to my Buzz Kidder sporran. You have come up with a creative idea and done an excellent job.

Cheers! Bill

I LOVE the black and white! It is really sharp. And I love the idea of interchangeablility. Now I can see why the women like to have lots of purses (ahem, not, of course, that this is the same thing (cough, cough)). I have only one sporran and I know of at least three more that I want. Maybe for my birthday... Or I'll get one for my son and then borrow it... Hmmm. (tapping fingers together and stroking chin).
