Our full moon sweat lodge ceremony rounds lasted until 1:30AM. Just got home. Crashing in few minutes. I have para-dragonboating practice in the morning.
Elder Dave Bill, from #Tseycum#FirstNation on #Wsanec lands, creates all the regalia for their peoples. He carved this multiple spirit animals protection necklace, especially for me & gave me healing blessings 🙌
Incredible surprise #gift - I didn't expect to receive something so special💗🙏💗.
Elder Dave handcrafted my custom #necklace from one deer #antler. It has cormorant, eagle, raven, otter, orca, bear #SpiritAnimals represented.
Pieces that only exist once in the world.
My beloved fairy necklace with earrings went to a client in Hollywood. Paper yarn in fairy green with Japanese glass art. Elaborately handmade. For people who dare.
I still make them today in several colours, but each one is unique. Why did I never made one for me?! 🤔
These are old designs I'm so happy to be making again.
The choker is a personal favourite, but I had to change it slightly - using slightly thicker chain for the loops either side. Which on balance I hope is an improvement..
They are fully adustable to any length, and can be customised on request.
Copper Fern Leaf pendants, and beaded choker fern necklace:
I always start with the stone: this #agate made me think of ferns and dense forest undergrowth. So lots of dark greens, hematite chips, and little copper fern charms got woven in. I love making these, even if it takes forever 😬
