Thank you for taking the time to see my listing and a Special Thanks to all the really nice and extremely interesting people I have met here! It sincerely makes my heart happy to read some of the really incredible emails I have received and how my work has touched the Spirits of some of my buyers, in some very incredible ways, I have often had many of you tell me that it was the PERFECT thing, for a certain time and certain person, and that you just happened to see look and see and there it was! Someone wondered what my 'secret' is.  Up until now, I've exclusively made Native American things for other Indians, family & freinds for well over 33 yrs; adorned Eagle Feathers, Dance Regalia, cerimonial items, pipes, feathers & certain sacred objects or just general adornment. We Indians have always made items for our own use in cerimonies, regalia, or just general everyday way of life (it's not a new fad to us).... so the answer to that question is,, simply this; because I have no 'secret',,, the reason my things look so authentic, is because,, they are. Since I've decided to start selling other Native made items, I hope you can be assured & happy to know that you will be getting something nice too. I would like to say to those individuals that The Sacred Circle is a Sacred Blessing and a Sacred way of life. I enjoy sharing what I am allowed and have been able to provide for you. Nothing happens in this life without a reason, if your reading this, you are reading it for a reason, nothing happens in our lives by chance or coincidence. For the new viewers if you are reading this, then there is a reason. The Circle of Life is a Gift from Gitiche Manidoo (God, Great Spirit, Creator) and one of the greatest things we can do in the Sacred Circle is to effect other people in good ways, positive ways, to do something nice for others & acknowledging our Creator as we do it. That's what matters! Thank You! Chi Mi-Gwetch!!! Thank you so much for sharing your stories with me!!!! ,,,,It helps my Spiriit as well and makes up a little for all the times when I see my things attempted to be copied in design and color, by a greedy, culturally disrespectful, non-Native,, it makes it worth my effort knowing that some of these items will be used in the manner they are intended to be made for, continuing a Traditiion by a people who continue to share with so many others. In this instance, to make these in the Sacred Way, during the very hard times I am in,,, I don't really believe that 'Imitation is the best flattery',,, 

  
Please honor the Peoples you so admire and be selective about your purchases. If you enjoy your Native American Flute please be conscientious and support the culture who brought you these wonderful items, by buying directly from Genuine Tribally Affiliated Native Americans! You won't be swindled,, You can be assured your items will only increase in value! And most importantly, you will prevent the compromise of Authentic Native American culture by preserving the culture and traditions from the onslaught of phony misrepresentation. And as an American this is also your heritage as well---"Native American arts and crafts are the only art indigenous to America,....It would be a tremendous loss to the entire country's cultural heritage to lose these traditions", Senator Jon Kyl said when he and Senator John McCain first introduced the bill.
