Anishinaabekwe in Milwaukee, WI

My passion for beadwork started young, I grew up watching my aunts teach my mom how to bead traditional regalia that my cousins and I would wear when we danced in powwows. I learned how to bead back in 2020. My cousin shared her passion for beadwork and collectively we started Ode’imin & Sage. I took a step away as she successfully continued when the shutdown lifted and my photographer career soared. I continued to dabble a little outside of the box with my beadwork and learned that I really just love making things in small collections. So here we are!
