Making stuff out of Giraffe skin

Not sure where to put this, but I have a giraffe skin I'd like to make some stuff out of for gifts. A couple lap top bags to begin with. Any good ideas as to who could do it? I'm in Eastern Oregon near Idaho border so closer would be better but not a deal breaker.
Thanks in advance

I use Animal Artistry out of Reno.

I had 2 rifle cases made.

And a pistol case.

Plus...2 Women large and 2 small purses.

I still have one purse left.

What outfit do you wear to match it to the purse?

I had Amanda at Harts Lake Trading Post in Roy/Yelm, WA make small and large duffels with Elk, Moose and Elephant hides, and 2 gun cases with elephant hide.She does superb work and reasonable!!

I took out one of my Boyt rifle cases for a pattern. They came out excellent, lined with sheep skin and trimmed with black leather.

She makes vests and all kinds of things!! Contact 360-458-3477

Good show Frank,

The Giraffe purses probably goes with the zebra and ostrich purses that I have had made.

some times you just have to have a little fashion.

now Frank, I am guessing that your the kind of guy that wears the zebra hat band hat, with a leopard print vest, or is it a zebra print vest.

now that makes you stand out in a crowd so your VIP service can find you when you arrive at the airport.

If the skin is tanned and thinned to workable leather then I would highly suggest Justine at Mile High. I’ve shipped her leather/hides in the past and she’s done really great work for us.
