boots at the beach #stillswimming #farmshoeshandmade
Farm Boots in AZ olive 🫒with double row stitching. Also some onlookers while I was sanding soles outside 😌🙏🏼🦃
Morning plunge (not in long enough for me to call it a swim 😂 but you can see my husband stays in for awhile)💙 Made it every day (almost) in October and into November so far!! 💃🏻🕺🏼
Sewing some Chestnut Rose Ghillies on our way to @chasehillfarm this morning (this is my hand-sewing car kit). Shoes are for the beautiful herbalist @atolyepatika_ in Turkey! 🧡 She has other pairs so there are no worries about sizing. ☺️ Love this color and might have to make a pair for myself!
Chukkahs in grey suede lined with pigskin and have a small heel 🤍 Forgot to post this when they were picked up by their new owner!
We finished!! 15 pair marathon in 4-1/2 days!! Lots of extra staff and friends of staff jumped in to save the day! @krokaexpeditions did an amazing job in all ways and everyone LOVED their shoes. I got to stay until they were gifted to each person (made by a small group) and the ooooh and ahhhs were so satisfying ❤️❤️ Can’t wait to see what we make next time!
It’s really happening! I’ve been at @krokaexpeditions this week making boots with semester students before they go off to paddle the Rio Grande! Such a great small group I’m working with, so focused and talented (and we sometimes sing while we work, out on the sunny porch!) Feeling like we may just get all 15 pairs finished by tomorrow with the huge help of some extra Kroka staff elves 🌟 I’ll post more pictures tomorrow but we’ve started carefully sewing the soles on with a stitching awl!
Open toe sandals in Dakota Wine with silver buckle and cream stitching (and photographed before the edges were buffed or sanded 🤪😳😱)
Pop up today in Orange, ma at the Garlic Fest location! Small stage with open mic, bring a picnic and water! It’s hot out! 💕🧡🌻
Wet shaping some shoes 😌 See my story for details (colors).
Dakota Chocolate open-toe sandals with brass buckle. Barefoot style- no heel. Love how these turned out!
Dance sandals in soft, lined butterball chocolate brown. Shipped out today! #farmshoeshandmade #barefootsandals #minimalistshoes #ilovemyjob #farmlife #makerslife
