What is Chutney

Posted on November 20, 2015 by customboots

Look what I received in the mail this morning! It’s Red Currant Chutney, hand-made by the president of Renia, the German company that makes the water-based glues I sell. I have absolutely no idea what Red Currant Chutney is or how it tastes, which does not dampen my enthusiasm at all!

Update on Paige

Posted on November 18, 2015 by customboots

She slept peacefully all night long, and awoke dreaming of food. I too slept peacefully all night long, and awoke dreaming of more sleep. But now I’m in the shop and looking forward to finally getting to work on cowboy boots again!

Sometimes I’m more mom than boot maker

Posted on November 16, 2015 by customboots

This page has been a little slow recently because I haven’t been in the shop since Wednesday. Paige has been very sick with the flu, and I’ve been at home taking care of her. She’s finally feeling a little better–too weak to do anything yet but well enough to be frustrated about it.
