Hi, I’m Angelena! I’m 24 years old and hail from a small town in Kansas. A few fun facts about me: I absolutely love spending time with my friends, my spirit animal is a lazy house cat, and I’m terrified of bugs (seriously, keep them away!). I discovered my passion for jewelry-making about three years ago, and it’s been an incredible creative journey ever since. Each piece I create reflects my personality and love for unique, handcrafted designs.

Hi, I’m Shaeyana Fay (pronounced Shae-yawn-ah). I am a proud member of the Rosebud Lakota Sioux nation. I was raised on a ranch in the beautiful landscapes of north-central Nebraska and south-central South Dakota. Growing up in the western world and amidst ranch life has influenced my beadwork style. As a self-taught artist, my journey began as a personal way to reconnect with my heritage. Today, I feel honored to share my creations with the world and the inspirations that help guide my work.

Angelena and Shaeyana first met in college in 2018. Although they were only acquaintances at the time and eventually lost touch, they reconnected a few years later when Angelena reached out to Shaeyana about coming to Nebraska to ride horses. From that moment on, they were best friends, always finding ways to spend time together. Both grew up in and around the agricultural world, sharing a love for riding horses, country music, and rocking out together. Now, they’re thrilled to embark on this creative journey as a team and can’t wait to see where this new road takes them.
