I have been feeling really sad lately and then I realized why. My mom's birthday is coming up. I miss her so much still.

I'm sorry I haven't done the shop update yet. Kind of not been feeling very good. Will try to have it done tomorrow. Until then I have a lot of things in there already starting at a very affordable $10. ko-fi.com/mahtheyzhawe...

Have not received any sales or donations. Still hoping to make my goal. In serious need of some medical supplies as well.

At this point I'm so stressed I want to shave my head. 🥴

I took pics of some finished items and will be doing a shop update tomorrow. Have to edit them and get them all nice and cropped. Kind of sad though cause my light box got damaged and needs replaced. Don't know how much longer it will work.

September 20th. #HelpFolksLive2025 thread. Something's *always* due & food is *always* needed. Things only get better with community action. *Now* is when folks need food, water, shelter, meds. *Now* is when we/the community needs to be there for each other. There's no one else. Just us.

150/2500 for bills, medical, personal care, and October rent due 10 days. Disabled and can't work so selling my art and donations is how I survive. PayPal.me/kiagbear Cashapp $kiagbear Venmo kiagbear ko-fi.com/mahtheyzhawe... #SettlerSaturday #HelpFolksLive2025 #MutualAid #HelpSky

Almost done with this. About 6 more inches.

Cause it's my new obsession. Making a choker style for fashion 💋

I finally finished the Choctaw collar, it came out so beautiful 😍😍😍😍 this is a custom order so nfs.

I've been just trying to get this collar done and focusing on feeling better. I was down for a bit with flare ups and allergies but I think I'm over the worst. This is a big reason why I've not been on socials much lately.

I have 2 inches to go. I forgot how long it takes to make these. I love it though!

Ok its taken care of! Thank you!! I can focus on making rest of things that are due at end of month.

My allergies have settled into my chest now. I hate this. Every end of summer I get sick from my allergies. Like clockwork.

I never got my SSI this month. I was waiting a few days to see if maybe it was late but now I'm going to have to contact them and hope I get to talk to someone. This is so irritating.

So I finally figured out how to put all my video clips together to make a longer video. Full process from beginning to end of the beaded hippo I just finished. It's my first long-form video so be gentle 😂 youtu.be/QsJ7OPKFx1o?...

Need met. Will delete posts soon! Thank you!!!

Been on a week-long recovery tour. Trip home then I got sick from allergies and worn out from going to court. Been living on my couch. Feeling semi baseline for me normal today. Still coughing a lot and have a runny nose. Needless to say I did not do any beading so going to get back to that today.

It's been a morning but the outcome was better than expected. Happy for my daughter.

Little people took my beading scissors while I was gone. I can't find them. 😭

Man I am so exhausted from going back home. I'm struggling to stay awake. Worth it though. Got to see my dad and my sisters. Definitely paying for it though. Took me all day today just to get out of bed.

Idk I'm doing a thing today where I don't ask anyone for help and see if anyone gives a shit. So far I've not been asked if I'm ok, if I need anything. I've not eaten or had anything to drink. I'm just laying here bc I'm flaring up from my trip. It's crazy I know I'm just tired of asking.

Just added beaded keychains and everything that was on etsy to the kofi shop! As always you can message me to buy direct and please share to help support a disabled Native artist. ko-fi.com/mahtheyzhawe...

Been trying to sell stuff here but no one is buying. 😮‍💨 was hoping to make some funds to eat tonight.

Heading off to my rez for the weekend to see family. I won't have wifi access most of the time however I will check things when I do. If I make any sales they will be shipped when I get back.

Anything purchased today will go out tomorrow. 🥰

Needing to sell some stuff for food and gas money for this weekend. ❤️❤️
