Welcome to Mamawi Creations, my name is Chauntelle and my family is originally from Sweetgrass First Nation in Saskatchewan. The language I share here is nehiyawewin, also known as Plains Cree.

I am the Artist of Mamawi Creations, my offering of sacred adornments handwoven within the ancestral traditions of beadwork.

mamawi : all together

We are all connected, interwoven like precious beads upon a golden thread.

This golden thread is love.

All of our creations are woven with this thread and hold the vision of all our relations rejoicing together in vibrant unity.

thank you for weaving this prayer with me
