Artisan Chris Wiggins
Artisan Cristen Wiggins
Cristen and I met at Valparaiso University in 1989 and were married in 1992.  We have two children Ben (19) and Natalie (21) who attend Texas A&M, San Antonio.  Cristen was a full-time mom when our kids were younger, and is now a special education teacher in San Antonio. Chris has been a business entrepreneur and project manager for 30 years.  We both have a strong passion for design and leather work, and love creating unique products.  There have been many times we are happy for the client, who is getting a bag, but very sad to see a particular piece leave our shop.  Cristen often reminds me that our bags are like children…. eventually, they have to leave the shop!  This passion and enthusiasm is reflected in everything we make.
