Mukluk Workshops! Register Now!

So I am finally ready to start a mukluk workshop! I will be teaching with one of my great friends and the woman who originally taught me, Gloria Beckman Ross.


This five week course follows you step by step through the process of creating your own unique footwear. Classes will be held weekly on Thursday evenings, start date to be confirmed (mid October). The cost of the course is $150 per person. This does not include the cost of supplies which will be approximately $100. A supply list will be provided as well as a list of places to shop. 

If you are in the Winnipeg area and interested in learning to make a pair of mukluks please contact me via email!

Deerhide Fringe Halter

I have been wanting to branch out a little bit from all the mukluks I have been making these days, and thought I would try my hand at a halter top. I had been eyeing this beautiful cream deer hide leather for a long time and thought this would be the perfect opportunity to use it. I kind of just made the pattern up as I went using one of my old bikinis as a guide. I really liked the outcome but I think I will make a few adjustments if I make another. If you are interested in ordering one please contact me directly, I don't think I will be posting this item on etsy, or advertising on kijiji. But who knows I may...

More and more mukluks...

Recently finished two more pairs of mukluks, both with rabbit fur. So here's just a quick post with pictures.

Currently I cannot take anymore orders to be ready before Christmas. I have a lot on the go. Depending on how quickly I can get the projects done I may have time for a pair or two in December, if you are interested please contact me and I can put your name on a wait list.
