Check out these rad, #handmade #DeerHide #Landback & #SquirrelTracks #earrings that my #Indigenous friend Jada made for me as a surprise gift! I LOVE THEM!!!

She's inviting me to help out with some moose hide processing soon. I'm excited because learning to process raw hides is something I love doing more hands on learning with. I'm going to share my cultural foods/arts/crafts/culture with Jada too đŸ’—âœŒïžđŸ’— We both believe that Creator led us to each other for meaningful friendship đŸ„°

I am an artesan of ancient techniques by training. Every now and then it's nice to be able to use the skills I learnt at school and now I'm working on a deer skin into a hide. I've been making a fat-tanning and there's just one last thing to do, the softening.
