Contemporary Cherokee Artist Karen Sixkiller offers beading workshops in collaboration with ʔaʔk̓ʷustəƞáwt̓xʷ House of Learning, Peninsula College Longhouse.
Learn the flat peyote stitch beading technique to create one or more pairs of fabulous, lightweight hoop earrings. Large hoop earrings are a major fashion trend this year, but these handmade pieces will be timeless additions to your wardrobe. Using two sizes of seed beads, you’ll design a curved beadwork piece and master the process of rolling and joining it around an earring hoop for a seamless circular peyote stitch look—no hassle required. Choose from the supplies provided in the workshop or bring your own beads to craft the perfect color combinations you love!
