I learned how to tuft!!! I went to a workshop on national indigenous peoples day and it was such a blast.

Made a medicine bag to be gifted to an elder along with tobacco at my local pride festival! So excited ❤️

I’m so sad about this one lol I’m just not satisfied with how it turned out. I’m still open to selling it just at a discounted price.

Roughly 3in tall 2in wide, can be worn as a bag charm or medallion.

Canada only 💜

Back to work on this guy. Planning on making it convertible (bag charm/medallion) and debating on making a matching lanyard to go with it 🫪

Second pair of customs down, these are for my great auntie ❤️

Carved a rubber stamp last night! I’m so happy with how it turned out!!!

Finished my first custom pair of earrings! My grandma and great auntie commissioned me so I’m working on auntie’s earrings now 🙏🏻💕

Made myself a new logo last night, syllabics for my name, Aki and some woodland motifs ❤️

And in typical style for myself, this is simply an illustration, I did not use vector paths (as you can probably tell) because I like the roughness and imperfection of a hand-drawn graphic.

I will be turning this design into stamps for branding the packaging for my beadwork ☺️

Also realized I never posted my finished stash tin

Took a new picture of my medallion for my beadwork account on ig

[aki-ozhitoon]

I just really love this wip picture

Finally finished these guys but I messed up the edging on one side so I’m keeping them ig

Some big auntie earrings I gifted to my mom

[aki-ozhitoon]

I’ve unfortunately lost my backing vinyl in the move and I’ve ordered more leather, so we’ll see what I end up going with for these guys 👻

I also haven’t decided what I want to do for edging, so that’ll be a whole side quest of its own.

I am hoping to start selling jewelry in the new year 🙏🏻 I have a bunch of gorgeous cabs, cute charms, dentalium and porcupine quills so hopefully I will have some stock soon!

[aki-ozhitoon]

My grandma got me a cute little moose hide earring kit for Christmas so I decided to make these tonight ☺️

Kit is by JShine Designs

Northern Pike keychain for my father in law complete! I didn’t forgo edging and I finished the whole thing with a blanket stitch to connect the edges of the beadwork and leather to give it a more polished feel. I hope he likes it 🤞🏻

Edit: he liked it :)
