About


Hello!

My name is Kathy Yantiss and I am the owner of Fur and Leather Creations.
Fur and Leather Creations is a home based business, located in Alma, Nebraska.
Alma is a small town in south central Nebraska, near the Harlan County Lake.

I can work with all kinds of fur, new skins or repurpose a fur coat that belonged to special person in your life.
My craft is to breathe new life into all types of fur by creating lovely teddy bears to keep as a happy memory.
I began working with fur at a local furrie, Haeker Furs, in the 80's and when the store closed many years later, I began making teddy bears from my home.

I keep very busy with many types of sewing. Along with the fur teddy bears.
I also do some alteration work for a furrier in Texas and do clothing alterations and mending from my home.
This work can range from hemming slacks, patching jeans and replacing zippers to altering Prom dresses and wedding gowns.
Never a moment of nothing to do around here.
