I know what you mean. I've got a stole that belonged to my mil and a jacket that was my mom's.... both mink. and they hang in the closet. thought about having Teddy Bears made out of them for our daughters.. never did, though... thought about maybe a vest for me.... still thinking... But, they are going to waste in the closet.
