Coyote Hunting - Use for Pelts?

I've had several coyotes showing up consistently on my trail cameras lately, and they've even taken a liking to peeing directly onto my salt blocks, which just pisses me right off. I'm planning to whack a few of em here in the next few months, and I was wondering if anyone has done anything cool with their pelts/fur? I already have one mounted, so I'm thinking more about a hat, scarf, or gloves for the Mrs., or something like that. Seeing as I've never done anything with pelts/fur, I'd sure appreciate any suggestions y'all may have.
 
I made a really nice hat/cape from one. Bought a leather visor and sewed the face to it and left the legs and tail hang down the back. Put a neck tie behind front legs to hold pelt tight to your neck in back.
 
We get like $30-$45 a hide up here fleshed and dried. I have one tanned as a bed mat for the cold floor fresh out of bed in the morning. Feels good on the feet.
