These are SO fun to make and I just got more of the findings for them. Working with these colors is always a treat!

Any thoughts of different types of charms that'd work well with these? I'm thinking of making some with ovals and circles, as well as some shorter versions on smaller crescent moon charms. Maybe clouds, I have some cool cloud charms.

Smoked moose hide, dentalium & chalcedony. Strung on sterling hardware.

I never thought I'd be beading more animals than anything else but I'm really starting to enjoy it!

FINALLY DONE😤😤😤

Dentalium, cultured pearl, gemstone & sterling beads (onyx, labradorite and moonstone). Backed on wool and leather, deerhide band.

I made the cabs as a custom order that was never picked up. Decided to use them finally. I was also making a green pair but I ran out of beads

2mm aquamarine, dentalium, and sterling beads. Strung on sterling hardware. I think I'm gonna make another pair with itty bitty bells--

This is an oldie of mine, but I wanted to share it after showing my other project. I began beading a few years ago and had no clue what I was doing, but this became one of my most believed pieces! I'm a female L'nu (Mi'kmaq) beadwork artist from NB 🥰 I thriffed the necklace portion, however.

Wela'lin!!

Trying to finish my projects before I get swamped with work again… We have cencozcatl, my maize necklace with real corn husks, and the obsidian pendant tok (hemp dogbane) necklace made with cordage we gathered and braided with the help of my Chumash friends. It’s such a pretty fiber and tremendously strong!

Kwe', my first time posting here! I just wanted to share one of my newest creations as an L'nu beadwork artist. I love everything I've seen here so far!

Wela'lin

Made with naturally collected dove feathers and stainless steel wire.

Made these and can add phone grips or 2 kinds of pin backs (and embed them for the pins). I think they're really fun but I welcome feedback on the designs.

I love this set so much, I’m so proud of myself for how far I’ve come with my work, there were so many time I wanted to give up, but I’ve come to love everything about beading and dentalium work especially.

Anyways this beauty is available if anybody is interested, I’m also open to customs!
