2026 Western Montana Fair 🎡

I entered a ribbon skirt, a pair of earrings, a bison garland, photos, and my daughter’s rapunzel dress as exhibits in this year’s fair and won a few ribbons! 🏅

My little family and I had a great time exploring the fairgrounds and I had a famous Indian Taco from the All Nations booth topped with Arthur Wayne of course! 🌶️

As you can probably tell by these photos, I am expecting our third baby in December🤰

I have slowed down on my creations lately enjoying summer time with my family before school starts which is why I have not been as present on here lately! I hope to continue creating new beadwork and be a vendor at one last market in November before baby comes. My Etsy shop is still open so keep checking for updates 📲

Here’s to the last bit of summertime! ☀️

Indigenous Made Summer Market 2026 ☀️🪶💖

WOW what an amazing turnout today at today’s market! There was a steady stream of people from the nearby farmers market most of the day and the weather was perfect ☀️

I am so grateful for all of those who came out and supported me today! I met a lot of amazing people and even reconnected with previous customers whose kind words made my day. 🙏

Thank you so much to Indigenous Made Montana | Art Markets for hosting this awesome event and for all their hard work to help support indigenous artists in our community! 🤗

I will post what little inventory I have left in my Etsy shop tomorrow after some much needed rest! 📲
