Anyone here doing any Native American Beadwork?

I remember working on an amulet pouch when I was first learning to bead.

hi! I am trying to learn to weave beads, yes, and make small purses. I have a small loom. Going to master straight strips before I move to circles, though, or small purses. They are so cool!

Where do you buy your beads?
New sources are always great.
I mail order from http://www.firemountaingems.com for the unusual things. Otherwise Joann Crafts and Fabrics or Michaels is nice.

Hubby is part native American Indian, (grandparents) so we try to honor their crafts, yes. :)

Asker's Rating:
• I collected my beads from a number of retailers all over Los Angeles. Some of those shops no longer exist, but luckily there are still several in the area.

Please check out the Mahalo page http://www.mahalo.com/answers/accept/anyone-here-doing-any-native-american-beadwork remains unclaimed.
