Craft Corner: Native American Choker
In spirit of Native American Heritage Month. Mrs. Shonda will demonstrate how to make a Native American Choker.
Historically, Native American chokers functioned as a form of protection for tribal warriors; guarding the jugular and deflecting arrows from the neck in battle. Sometimes they were attached to full breastplates as well, since bone is a very strong and nearly impenetrable natural resource.
Materials:
Beads
Bone Beads (Hair Pipe)
Artificial Sinew
