Handcrafted Navajo beadwork with heart and purpose
Carrying forward love, family, and tradition
I started A.C.T. Beaded Things in loving memory of my oldest son, Gary, whom I lost in 2011. He was a dedicated son and father, and our business name honors his beloved children: Aidan, Cash, and Trinity. My older sister first introduced me to beading when I was young, and over the years I taught myself to hone the craft. As a proud Navajo artisan, my work reflects deep gratitude and reverence for my tribe, our traditional designs, and the enduring beauty of Native art.
Welcome to A.C.T. Beaded Things in Coweta, Oklahoma. Every piece of beadwork is handcrafted by me, honoring my Navajo roots and creating meaningful, wearable art made with patience and love.
