About
Hello Beautiful!
I'm Angelina DeWeese, creator of The Beading Sisterhood.
I'm so thankful that you've landed here to explore the sacred art of seed beading + sisterhood. These tiny beads have been so deeply healing for me that I'm ready to share them with others!
Since 2006, I've been a women's coach and while I still love supporting others deep healing - in 2018 I came to the realization that I was unable to simply quiet my mind and be present. This was causing havoc in my life. I asked for help from spirit...
I began to dream of tiny beads + 100's of woman coming together to bead. I did not really understand, but I started to research.
I dove into the history + craft and found that some of the oldest known seed beads were created in Italy (where some of my ancestors are from) and have been used across the world as an art from of connection + beauty.
WHY I CREATED THE Beading Sisterhood
1. I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED SNAIL MAIL, CARDS, + MAKING GIFTS! There's nothing quite like a handmade gift or card to pour thought + intention into someone. I'm a big believer in showering others with love + gratitude (including ourselves) so a monthly box of goodies shipped to your door just makes sense!
2. I HAVE AN OBSESSION WITH EARRINGS - Some women collect shoes. I collect earrings. Ever since becoming a mom 11 years ago, it's been my way to add a pop of self expression to my functional wardrobe.
3. I WANT TO SUPPORT MYSELF & OTHERS TO PRACTICE PRESENCE - I have realized that teaching the art of beading to other women is a way to bring forth my love of circling with other women and my desire to support us all in cultivating more ritual + presence in our lives. Beading is slow art that allows you to practice stillness.
4. I BELIEVE THAT WHEN WOMEN CIRCLE TOGETHER THEY HEAL EACH OTHER. Jean Shinoda Bolen's Book, The Millionth Circle sparked a desire in me to find ways to support women to reconnect with their wild roots of coming together to create + support each other.
5. RECONNECTING TO OUR CREATIVITY SUPPORTS EVERY AREA OF OUR LIVES. Creativity sometimes falls down the list of priorities however it's a vital key to a happy and fulfilling life.
If you shook your head in agreement..it's likely that this community was created just for you. I'd be honored if you'd join us!
