Life changes... and so do the boots.

The beautiful days here in Oregon have inspired the creative spirit within!  I finished 7 purses and started 7 more.  I have created a way to add a concealed weapon inside the cowboy boot bag.  It's a special order at this time. Email me for more details and custom orders. 
Thank you for all your support and kindness! I look forward to a fun, creative and beautiful spring!  Join the fun!

I loved making this purse!  The boots were made by ariat with a vintage looking cowgirl on a bucking horse.  

I made some purses from Corral Cowboy Boots. It just so happens I have matching boots.  You can see pictures at our previous blog "photo shoot".   So we've got red with swarovski crystals and leopard print hide, black vintage boots with pink and blue inlays with stars and a classic brown with sky blue stitching and of course more swarovski crystals.
I have some booties to match, but they are limited.

I updated the feather earrings which are quite stunning! Which are your favorites?
     

We had a great time photographing for the True West magazine.  Here are some of my favorites!  Thank you to Haley Wilson, our model. See the newest listings here!
     
    

I love Ivanna.  Tall, majestic, gentle.  She assumed we were there just to photograph her. She had assumed she was brought into this world to be a star and that's why we were there, to discover her beauty.  It was hard to have the cowboy boot purses be the focus with her big face in every picture!  But seriously, how I loved her breath, the pounding of the ground when she'd walk and "wooshing" of her tail.  I hope this is what heaven will be like.  See all the current purses HERE.
     

I just listed a few more purses with 8 more to be listed by Friday, Sept. 28th!  Let me know if you'd like something specific.  

I will be at the world renowned Cracked Pots show at Edgefield July 24-25th.  It's a free show to attend.  There are amazing things from all over that will displayed and for sale.  This entire event is for recycled products only! You'll be amazed and learn a lot about it also.  I will have a purse in the contest! Check it out!

I just finished a batch of purses in fabulous colors, shapes and styles.  It's so rewarding to see them all lined up when I'm done. Like canning, if that's the sort of thing ya do.  You get to delight in the moment of achievement when you realize the inspiration and guidance in creating each item.  I hope you enjoy the options. 
I listed my "fun and funky" line of necklaces and pendants.  Quick, fun and for everyone!

Ok, I will admit it! I'm a boot whore!  But, really, if you were going to be a whore, what better kind? 

I've taken some creative yet whimsical creative liberties in my shop recently, creating the zippy zig zag in red and the fearless black lady biker spider bag!  It's amazing the boots you can find.  I think that's the number one question people ask me. "Where do you find all these boots?"  Well, it's a journey. In unusual places sometimes, sometimes in the wide open spaces.  Estate sales, garage sales, horse shows, rodeos.  Sometimes in little country junk stores off the beaten path.  Traveling in Mexico, we ditched the common tourist street offerings and ventured in the alleys.  All went well, and now you will get to see what I've done with those adventures.  I used industrial gear bezels on the top with red crystals, horse reins for the handles and added red crystals on the spider just for kicks! If you want to see more pictures, check out my Hall of Fame page.
I love buying the boots straight off the cowboy!  I love to hear confessions of where the boots have been and the personal accounts of being thrown from the back of a bucking bull at the Houston Livestock show back in '88.  (That guy had to break his back 3 times before he realized he needed to find another form of entertainment. His boots turned into an awesome bag, though, once I got all the bull shit cleaned off!)  
Well, if you would like me to make a purse from your boots and listen to your bull... uh, story about your boots, just give me a holler or fill out the custom order form and let me know the boots are on the way.  

Happy Trails!
