i miss being a kid. growing up we had a makeshift basement movie theater where it was just a cheap projector and a sheet on the wall, and all the money was put into a surround sound system. i’d lay in my barbie princess vinyl tent that smelled like plastic- and i’d watch finding nemo on blast.

good news: it’s just impacted!!! yay!!! bad news: his softball sized poop cost $790 in vet bills. turns out he has motility issues and his body doesn’t process anything out the way it should. so now he’s on meds for the remainder of his life to prevent it again. poor baby. but he’s all good!!!!!

my parents have taken one of our dogs to the vet tonight, cause we don’t know if he has prostate cancer or is impacted :( he’s been struggling to go potty, and we don’t want him in pain. i’m sad.

saw these gorgeous flowers just now, never seen them before. they’re so pretty. curcuma, apparently native to laos, thailand and cambodia

maybe this is the summer i pull out my sewing machine and make myself a pretty ribbon skirt 🤔

ngl i can’t wait to make more flowers. just got some extra beads, tonight’s gonna be a busy night lol

my first go at something completely different from my norm; big beautiful peyote flowers. these took so many mistakes and re-dos in order to finish over the past two days, but now i could probably make them with my eyes closed. these took a whole tube of 11/0 beads, and a ton of patience lol

peyote stitch is so fun despite being a bead-by-bead process. like i’m looking at these flowers i’ve finished and like??? wym each single bead was put there by me. immediately makes you appreciate any peyote work you find in the wild. peyote stitch is 100% made with love.

this weekends beadwork drop was postponed btw 😢 i’ve been babysitting + indulging in a new design every night that takes a lot longer to finish than i planned lol. but im very excited about it, im sure y’all will like it ✨

the worst part about making earrings is finishing one, and then remembering you gotta do it again

i think it’s time i trim my hair y’all…. my ends r crying for the sweet release of a good snip ✂️

today’s evening birding 🐦🎶

i can only imagine how many fallen beads i vacuum up weekly

A SQUIRREL IS USING OUR TINY TABLE!!!!

eeeeee these babies are being sent on their way tomorrow, love me some long earrings 🖤🪶✨ so excited 🫶🏼

🫪 the internet is so unserious when u think ab it

good morning, definitely didn’t expect a post i wrote on a whim last night would get 700+ likes. that felt absolutely terrifying to wake up to lol

it really is beautiful that i am my ancestors wildest dream, in the sense that i am a woman who can read. can write. got an education. unmarried. generations freed from servitude. practicing tradition. aware of and in love with who i am and always will be. i’m constantly thankful.

i hope the local hummingbirds know i love them

anyways i’m home, now i get to sit at my desk and finish my beadwork and live life in peace ✨

teeeeeny tiny 10 week old baby at work!! i’m in love

sunrise was crazy this morning, forgot i took this when i first woke up lol

noticed a new grey hair today, that makes 5 of them on my head. i’m collecting them atp, each a strand of wisdom

i’m watching one of my nephews while his mom goes to her first chemo appointment, and lil dude is two bowls deep into some cheeto puffs while we watch the bee movie. by far the chillest day of babysitting i think lol

lil june #promosky for all the new friends who’ve followed over the past few days! my name is luxiana, i also go by sa’qati ✨ im always posting about stuff, such as; • beadwork • birding + nature • gardening • indigenous topics • working @ a daycare i’m so glad to meet yall, happy pride month🤍

happy pride to all my lovelies out there 🤍✨

smartest life hack i learned when it comes to keeping my desk clean, is that i can use a random old ziplock bag for all my beading trash. hella string everywhere? put it in da baggie. deformed bead? put it in da baggie. plastic and paper from all my supplies? put it in da baggieee 🗣️ !!!

good afternoon 🪶✨ todays drop day! I had minor technical difficulties, so today is 1/2 of what I had planned. so if you don’t spot anything today, later this week will bring more updates 🤍 as always shipping is thru US/CA, and if you ever have any questions, let me know! omodei.co // #indigisky

i talked to the loblolly pines about you. they know everything now. they’re spreading my gossip thru the fungal network rn as we speak. by tomorrow, the dogwoods and willow oaks will know too.

gonna eat stuffed hot honey pizza on the back porch while the frogs sing into the night. i love summer time (except for mosquitos. pls leave me alone)

my two favorites so far. my fingers hurt, but it’s been so worth it. the colors bring me so much joy

spotted some relatives from across the lake this mornin

website is locked while I set up some stuff ✨🪶

i deleted the posts earlier but i mentioned how something sounded like it exploded here around 5pm today. it was confirmed not an earthquake. our bases confirmed it wasn’t them either. news stations have guessed it was a meteor…? but that’s not confirmed like wtf was it!!!! it was so loud!!!!

tomorrow is gonna be a big picture day for all the beadwork i’ve finished. i wanted to squeeze out a couple more pairs before then… but im telling myself its ok to stop for now and just drop more later 🤣 i gotta give myself some slack

my grandma had another visitor today, she told me that my previous lil cat friend i made must’ve went off and told all her other cat relatives to come by and take a snooze LOL

our very first prototype works beautifully, my dad truly makes magic happen ✨ a handmade wooden beading board is by far the coziest thing to work with. soon we’ll have the little details smoothed out, and i’ll have a few available for sale ~ #beadwork #indigisky

Pictures don't give them justice, but they're so beautiful! 🥹 Thank you so much, @omodei.co 🥹

took a 4 hour nap i feel like i could conquer the world rn

i’m finally home 😭 which i’m honestly happy about bc all i feel is sunburn pain. i’d say 70% of this weekend involved nothing but drinking, and while it was a blast, im just not a big drinker like that. it was so nice to see everyone tho!!! even got to meet some new friends!!! 10/10 time

my sun burn hurts… i am full of regret and liquid iv

i’m burnt to a crisp despite so much sunscreen, but i mean… 5+ hours on the beach will do that. at least my souvenir’s gonna be a nice tan

😵‍💫 rise and shine friends

i’m drunk for the first time in ages send halp there’s many people, but it’s fun!!!

we have been driving thru the middle of nowhere for three hours now, i feel like im losing my mind

it’s vacation time 😎

so i originally made a pair of these to sell, absolutely fell in love with them, and ended up making another pair to keep for myself. 🪶✨ so here’s a peep at what’s to come!

little old ladies who chat with me in line at the thrift always have my heart. i love them.

i genuinely cry when my love comes home and i can physically see the exhaustion in his eyes. he works 70 hours a week. every week. that number is inhumane.

oh my god bsky finally unlocked the door let me IN
