                          INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT


December 22, 2000

Board of Directors
TLC Direct, Inc.
Tandy Leather Dealer, Inc.
Fort Worth, Texas

We have audited the accompanying  combined balance sheet of TLC Direct, Inc. and
Tandy Leather Dealer, Inc. (collectively the "Tandy Leather Company") as of June
30, 2000,  and the related  combined  statements  of  operations  and changes in
stockholder's  equity and cash flows for the year then  ended.  These  financial
statements   are  the   responsibility   of  the   Company's   management.   Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards  require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance   about  whether  the  financial   statements  are  free  of  material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our  opinion,  the  combined  financial  statements  referred to in the first
paragraph  present  fairly,  in all material  respects,  the combined  financial
position of Tandy Leather Company as of June 30, 2000, and the combined  results
of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity  with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                       (wholly owned by Tandycrafts, Inc.)

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
    (the three-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 are unaudited)



1.   DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     -------------------------------------------------

     The Company markets and distributes leather and leather craft products sold
     throughout  the  United  States  via  the  Internet  and  mail  order,  and
     internationally through authorized dealers.

     The Company's  combined  financial  statements  include the accounts of TLC
     Direct,  Inc. ("TLC") and Tandy Leather Dealer,  Inc.  ("TLD"),  which were
     incorporated in July 1999 as wholly-owned subsidiaries of Tandycrafts, Inc.
     ("the Parent"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
     been  eliminated  in  the   combination.   TLC  and  TLD  are  referred  to
     collectively as Tandy Leather Company ("the Company").

     On August 1, 1999, the Parent contributed certain assets and liabilities to
     the Company that had previously  comprised its leather and crafts operating
     division.  The assets and  liabilities  were  recorded at the Parent's book
     value.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     ------------------------------------------

     Inventory
     ---------
     Inventory  consists of finished goods held for resale,  valued at the lower
     of average cost or market.

     Property and Equipment
     ----------------------
     Property  and  equipment is stated at cost less  accumulated  depreciation.
     Depreciation is computed using the straight-line  method over the estimated
     useful lives,  generally  three to seven years,  of the underlying  assets.
     Accumulated depreciation is $26,522 at June 30, 2000.

     Expenditures for maintenance,  repairs,  renewals and betterments  which do
     not materially prolong the useful lives of the assets are charged to income
     as  incurred.  The  cost of  property  retired  or  sold,  and the  related
     accumulated  depreciation,  is removed  from the  accounts  and any gain or
     loss, after taking into consideration  proceeds from sales, is reflected in
     income.

     Revenue Recognition
     -------------------
     Sales are recorded when goods are shipped to customers.

     Allocated Corporate Expenses
     ----------------------------
     The accompanying statements of operations include certain expenses incurred
     by the Parent on the Company's  behalf.  These corporate  expenses  consist
     primarily  of rent  and  labor,  associated  with  the use of the  Parent's
     warehouse  facility,  and other general and  administrative  expenses.  The
     Parent charges rent expense at rates that it believes would be incurred for
     similar facilities.  The Parent has established performance budgets for the
     Company and allocates labor costs relative to budgeted  operating  results.
     The Parent allocates general and  administrative  expenses in proportion to
     the Company's use of corporate services.  The Parent believes these methods
     are reasonable.

     Advertising Costs
     -----------------
     With the  exception  of catalog  costs,  advertising  costs are expensed as
     incurred.  Catalog costs are  capitalized  and expensed when the catalog is
     released.  Total  advertising  expense was $900,166 for the year ended June
     30,  2000 and  $127,034  and  $544,199  for the three month  periods  ended
     September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

                              TANDY LEATHER COMPANY

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
    (the three-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 are unaudited)


     Income Taxes
     ------------
     Income taxes are calculated in accordance with the liability method,  which
     requires that deferred tax assets and  liabilities  be recognized  based on
     differences  between the  financial  statement  and tax bases of assets and
     liabilities using presently enacted rates.

     The Company is included in the  consolidated  federal  income tax return of
     the  Parent.  However,  the  Company  records  income  taxes for  financial
     reporting  purposes  as if it filed a  separate  tax  return.  Current  and
     deferred income tax assets and liabilities are included in Due to Parent on
     the balance sheet.

     Use of Estimates
     ----------------
     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
     accepted  accounting  principles  requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions  that effect the amounts  reported in the financial  statements
     and  accompanying  notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates
     and those differences could be material.  Significant estimates made by the
     Company  include  the net  realizable  values of  accounts  receivable  and
     inventory.

     Unaudited Information
     ---------------------
     The combined  financial  statements  as of  September  30, 2000 and for the
     three-month  periods ended  September 30, 2000 and 1999 were taken from the
     Company's  books and  records  without  audit.  However,  in the opinion of
     management,  such information includes all adjustments  (consisting only of
     normal  recurring  accruals)  which are  necessary to properly  reflect the
     financial position and results of operations for the applicable periods.

3.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
     --------------------------

     Net amounts  advanced to the Company by the Parent for working  capital and
     other operating  purposes,  including net assets  transferred at inception,
     totaled  $2,013,415 and $2,062,257 at September 30, 2000 and June 30, 2000,
     respectively.  Such  advances  are  non-interest  bearing  and  contain  no
     specific terms of repayment. Expenses allocated by the Parent are described
     in Note 2.

     The Company's  assets are included as collateral for the Parent's bank debt
     along with other assets of the Parent. Funds from the sale of the Company's
     assets described in Note 7 were used to reduce the Parent's debt.

4.   STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY
     --------------------

     TLC and TLD have each  authorized  1,000 shares of common  stock,  $.01 par
     value,  for a  total  of  2,000  shares,  all  of  which  were  issued  and
     outstanding as of June 30, 2000.

5.   INCOME TAXES
     ------------
     The provision  for income taxes for the year ended June 30, 2000  consisted
     primarily of current tax expense.  The  difference  between the tax expense
     and the amount expected based on the statutory tax rate is primarily due to
     the effect of state taxes.

     As of June 30, 2000, the income tax effects of temporary  differences  that
     give rise to significant  portions of the Company's deferred tax assets and
     liabilities  were as set forth below.  As described in Note 2, the deferred
     tax asset balance is included in Due to Parent in the balance sheet.

     Deferred tax assets:
          Allowance for doubtful accounts                $        76,000
          Reserve for obsolete inventory                          10,000

              Total deferred tax asset                            86,000

     Valuation allowance                                         (86,000)
                                                         ---------------
                                                         $          -
                                                         ===============

6.   MAJOR CUSTOMERS, CREDIT RISK AND GEOGRAPHIC AREA INFORMATION
     ------------------------------------------------------------

     The  Company's  revenues  are  derived  from a diverse  group of  customers
     principally  located in the United States and Canada.  Approximately 11% of
     the Company's sales were to customers  outside the United States. No single
     customer  accounted  for more than 10% of the  Company's  revenues  for the
     periods presented.

     Credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is considered to be limited
     due to the  diversity of the Company's  customer base and their  geographic
     dispersion.  The Company does not generally require collateral for accounts
     receivable.  The  Company  performs  periodic  credit  evaluations  of  its
     customers'  financial  condition  and believes the  allowance  for doubtful
     accounts is  adequate.  At June 30,  2000,  amounts due from an  authorized
     dealer located in Canada  represented  approximately  28% of total accounts
     receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts.

7.   SEGMENT INFORMATION
     -------------------

     The Company markets and distributes  leather and leather craft products via
     the  Internet  and  mail  order   ("Direct")  and  to  authorized   dealers
     ("Dealer").

     Management  evaluates the  performance of its reportable  segments based on
     segment  profit or loss,  defined as segment  revenue  less segment cost of
     sales, excluding selling, general and administrative expenses, depreciation
     and taxes on income.  Segment assets are those assets that are used in each
     reportable segment.

The Leather Factory, Inc.
Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements

The  accompanying  unaudited pro forma combined  financial  statements have been
prepared  to reflect  the  acquisition  of TLC Direct,  Inc.  and Tandy  Leather
Dealer, Inc.  (collectively the "Tandy Leather Company") by The Leather Factory,
Inc.  ("TLF").  TLF acquired the Tandy Leather  Company on November 30, 2000 for
cash consideration of $2,850,000,  subject to certain  adjustments  specified in
the Agreement.

The  unaudited  pro  forma  combined  balance  sheet at  September  30,  2000 is
presented as if the  acquisition  had occurred on that date.  The  unaudited pro
forma  statements of income are  presented for the three months ended  September
30,  2000 and the year  ended June 30,  2000.  TLF has a  December  31  calendar
year-end and Tandy Leather  Company has a June 30 fiscal year end. The pro forma
statements  of income are  presented on a June 30 fiscal year basis because that
presentation  is believed to be more meaningful as Tandy Leather Company was not
formed  until July 1999.  The pro forma  statement of income of TLF for the year
ended June 30, 2000  combines the  statements of income of TLF for the six month
period ended December 31, 1999 and the six month period ended June 30, 2000. The
unaudited  pro forma  combined  statement  of income for the year ended June 30,
2000 is  presented  as if the  acquisition  had  occurred  on July 1, 1999.  The
unaudited  pro forma  combined  statement  of income for the three  months ended
September  30, 2000 is presented as if the  acquisition  had occurred on July 1,
2000.

The  unaudited  pro  forma  combined  financial  statements  should  be  read in
conjunction with the historical financial statements of TLF included in its most
recent Forms 10-K and 10-Q, and the historical financial statements of the Tandy
Leather Company  included herein.  These pro forma financial  statements are not
indicative  of the  financial  position  or  results  of  operations  that would
actually have occurred if the  transactions  described above had occurred at the
dates presented or which may be obtained in the future.
