                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


To the Administrative Committee and Participants of
Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. Stock Purchase Program


We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. Stock Purchase Program (the "Plan") as of
December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the related statements of changes in net assets
available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. Stock Purchase Program as of December 31, 2000
and 1999, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the years
then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

A. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

The following description of the Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. Stock Purchase
Program (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should
refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan's
provisions.

GENERAL

The purpose of the Plan is to assist the employees of the Company in building
personal net worth and to encourage ownership in the Company by providing a Plan
for regular investment in the Company's common stock.

Employees who are of legal age, continuously employed for six months or more and
work a minimum of twenty hours per week are eligible to participate in the Plan.
Once an eligible employee reaches two years of continuous service, participation
in the Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. Employees Investment Plan is required to
continue participation in the Plan.

CONTRIBUTIONS

A participant may contribute to the Plan through authorized payroll deduction of
5% or 10% of their qualifying compensation.

The Company matches 25% of the participant contributions for eligible employees
with less than two years of continuous employment with the Company. Eligible
employees with two years of continuous employment that participate in the Tandy
Brands Accessories, Inc. Employees Investment Plan receive a 50% matching
contribution from the Company.

The employee payroll deduction is accumulated and the Company contribution is
determined and accrued monthly. The total contributions for each month are
credited to the participants' accounts as stock on the basis of a price equal to
the average of the closing price of the stock for each trading day in the month.

PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution and
the Company's contribution for each month. Participant accounts are valued on a
monthly basis in accordance with the Plan's provisions.

VESTING

Participants are immediately vested (at all times) in all contributions plus
actual earnings thereon.

Each participant's account is distributed no later than February 15th following

B.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNT POLICIES

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

The financial statements of the Plan are prepared using the accrual method of
accounting.

ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires the plan administrator to make estimates and
assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly,
actual results may differ from those estimates.

INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION

The Company stock is valued at its quoted market price. This investment is
subject to market or credit risks customarily associated with equity
investments.

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Benefits are recorded when paid. Benefits payable at December 31, 2000 and 1999
approximated $1,262,966 and $1,350,426, respectively.

C. ADMINISTRATION OF PLAN ASSETS

The Plan's assets, which consist principally of cash, are held by the Company.

Contributions are held and managed by the Company, which invests cash received,
and makes distributions to participants.

Certain administrative functions are performed by officers or employees of the
Company. No such officer or employee receives compensation from the Plan.
Administrative expenses related to the Plan are paid directly by the Company.
