Happy to share a bit of what I’ve been up to 🤍 Still attending ceremonies, beading, and doing what I told my momma I would do. Eight months ago I sat with my momma as she took her last breath and said goodbye.

But this past week, something so special happened.
I heard someone tell me to wait for a sign, so I waited for days, looking at each butterfly, bird, wondering if that was it. Then when I least expected it, my sign came so clearly and without a doubt, a message from mom. It’s easy for someone to say ‘she’s always with you’, but to actually receive that message is something else.

Pat of this message included the work I’ve been preparing to do with my Sage Sisters and in alignment with messages I’ve been hearing at ceremony. I took my son to patrol with Sage sisters for his first time and feed people in the community. (He did amazing! 🥲) And the reason I’m able to do this work circles back to my business and beading.

I’m so thankful for every big order I get that I make a conscious effort to give back in some way. Whether that’s donating or patrolling with Sage sisters, donating to charities or non- profits. It’s a way of showing my gratitude for the support my business receives and the trust that is given to me to fulfill those orders. Last photo is a sneak peek of the order currently in the works.

I truly appreciate every one who’s been a part of supporting me in the work I do and the love of my friends and family to help keep me going. Kisakitin 🫶

Part 2 of cleaning fish scales. Honestly it’s a lot of scrubbing and rinsing to get the smell and fish bits off 😅
Let me know what you’d like to see next!

Excited to work on some orders big & small in the coming months 🫶

Tansi all. I’m currently working on restocking my dyed fish scales on my website, slowly but surely. The washing alone took a good amount of time.

Sometimes when I post reels I get new viewers, so this is for you! I’m Maria! 👋 fish scale art is something my mom taught me. It’s almost 6 months to the date that she passed, and I told her I would keep making and sharing my art, so here I am. 🫶 I like to share the process because it’s a true labour of love.

The fish scales are used in various forms of artwork. I’m Cree originally from Northern AB (Canada) from treaty 8, and I’ve been residing here in treaty 7 for a while now.

To learn more about fish scale art, please visit my website: www.tealfawndesigns.com . Dm or email me asap if you want to be added to the email list to be notified when fish scales are available for purchase.
