FAQ
Why is your beadwork priced the way it is?
Beadwork is slow, detailed work—and I’ve been honing my skills for nearly a decade. I strive for perfection in every piece and use only the best-quality supplies I can source. This includes home-smoked moose hide for nearly all leather components, sterling silver or gold-filled hooks and hardware, and carefully selected beads, many of which I collect during my travels. My prices reflect the time, care, cultural knowledge, and experience that go into making something truly special and built to last.
How can I order a piece?
You can shop beadwork directly through my website under the "Beadwork" section. I restock monthly, with dates and times announced on Instagram. Pieces tend to sell out quickly, so I recommend having your payment details ready for a smooth checkout.
The piece I wanted sold out—can I request a custom version?
Unfortunately, I can’t recreate sold-out pieces. Beadwork is slow, intentional work, and each collection takes weeks to produce. Once a sale ends, I’m already focused on the next restock.
Are your customs open?
Yes, I open custom spots more often now! When available, you’ll find them listed on my website under "Custom Orders." Spots are limited and specific (like for blueberry earrings). I’ll post on Instagram when they’re live and take the listing down once they’re filled.
Will I get tracking information?
Yes! Once your order ships, you’ll receive a tracking number by email. Please check your inbox (and spam folder) for shipping updates.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, I ship worldwide. Shipping rates and delivery times vary based on your location and will be calculated at checkout.
EARRING CARE 💕
1. How should I store my earrings?
Store your earrings in a dry place, away from moisture and direct sunlight. A jewelry box or cloth pouch works great to protect them from dust and scratches.
2. Will the metal tarnish over time?
Yes—sterling silver and gold-filled metals can naturally tarnish with time, especially when exposed to moisture, air, or skin oils. To slow this process, keep your earrings dry and store them in an airtight container when not in use. A gentle polish cloth can help restore shine if needed.
3. How should I care for bolo ties or pieces with leather cords?
Store bolo ties hanging whenever possible—this helps the leather cord keep its shape and prevents creasing. Avoid getting the leather wet and keep it out of direct sunlight to prevent drying or fading.
4. Can I clean my beadwork?
Avoid submerging your beadwork in water. If needed, gently spot clean with a slightly damp cloth. Beads are delicate and should be handled with care.
