I have been beading for over 25 years. It has become a passion for me. I love to create and beads allow me to do just that.

I make moccasins, barrettes and currently am making a new pow wow outfit for our youngest son, who is a chicken dancer.

I enjoy brickstitch, peyote, but free design is the best.

Everywhere, especially nature. Beads decide what they want to become. The design & color sometimes just happen.

I like to work at home, but get alot of beading done at the cabin and at my Trading Post. I love my bead store almost as much as beading.

I order from several places.

My grandma was very good at many crafts, especially beading and quilting. She taught me so much. Knitting, crocheting, sewing, quilting. Sometimes I really miss her. We used to pick blueberries every summer at the cabin, and she liked to play cards. She was 96 when she passed away.
