NOT FOR SALE- Here's a squash blossom I repaired, cleaned, & polished for Debra 🤍🩶🖤🩶🤍 Before I worked on it, it was completely unwearable, as the outer strand snapped apart by the centerpiece, leaving some silver beads missing. It was also tarnished. But I replaced the lost silver beads, cleaned, & polished every single piece of silver, restrung it all together & now it looks brand new and is ready to be worn again! 🌟 I'm happy with how the squash blossom came out after all the hard work I put into it! Heur'kem/Ha'wuh/Dawa'eh for your love, trust, patience, & support Debra! 🙌🏼🙏🏼 I'm happy you & your family get to wear this necklace once more 🌻🌈

NOT FOR SALE- Here's a jacla necklace I repaired & restrung for Yashay 💙🩵🤍🩵💙 This beautiful necklace was a birthday gift from his mom & sister. One of the jacla loops at the bottom of the necklace tore & the beads that fell off were unfortunately lost. It's been about 15 years since it broke. But luckily he reached out to me to repair it & I was able to replace all of the graduated white shell & turquoise beads that were lost, clean every single bead, & restring it. And now after many years of being unwearable, it looks brand new & is ready to be worn again! ✨️ Heur'kem/Ha'wuh/Dawa'eh/Gracias Yashay for your continued support, trust, patience, & love! 🙌🏼🙏🏼 I am really happy to have done this jewelry repair for you & that you get to enjoy wearing your necklace once more! 🌻🌈

Today marks the 345th anniversary of the Pueblo Revolt 🏹❤️‍🔥 It is important to acknowledge that it wouldn't have ever happened if it wasn't for our q***r, trans, 2spirit folks, & women who also helped organize it, & fought for our existence, which severely gets overlooked. To this day, we are the backbone of our pueblos; life bringers in our communities & I hope all pueblo women & 2spirit kin always remember that & keep that fighting spirit strong ❤️ Because with how things are going on in the world right now, we're gonna have to revolt again, most likely in our lifetimes. For all my pueblo relatives, I hope you are able to do something special to commemorate this day & honor the sacrifices our people made for us to be here 🌈🌻🤎

Me & my sib after we danced for Seama Feast Day in Laguna ☀️ & yeah I know we forgot to take our aprons off, we were tired 😂 Much love to y'all from us in Tiwa lands 🪶
