Wampum belts - grade 6 (part 1)


Oh, how I love these! There are still many more that are being finished, but I couldn't help myself from posting what is already done. I got the idea from There's a Dragon in my Art Room.

Here's me modelling one - ha! I can never trust kids with a camera, the pictures always come out blurry. I will post many more tomorrow, along with a tutorial, how we made the loom, etc.

  1. Yay!!! I'm so happy that you were successful with this! I love being able to "pass it on". I learned how to make these from a workshop at my state conference about 3 years ago, and I must have driven the poor girl who taught it crazy! I kept emailing her with little questions. At the conference I practically ASSAULTED her at the elevator with a question, which turned out to be a good thing because some creepy guy had been following her and I rescued her!

    Can't wait to see more tomorrow; what you've shown so far looks AWESOME!

    1. I don't blame you - I was so excited when I first saw this on your blog! I will have to post more tomorrow, I have some kids that are still finishing! They certainly are time consuming, but well worth it.
