Furby.

Remember Furbys? They were curiously all the rage one Christmas a long time ago, and no one knew why. Kind of like Elf on the Shelf, which I understand is the current must-have in yuppie young family-dom across the US. And let’s not forget all of the other cultishly popular items of yesteryear: trolls (we had dozens of those weirdos — seriously, how bizarre and slightly pervy were they?! Old, nude, tan men with neon, sticking-straight-up hair…?), kooshes, and beanie babies come to mind. Y’all, trends are weird.

But all of that bears only a liminal connection to the subject of this post, which is how much I love decorating with fur and animal hides in the home:
