Purchase works of art such as dream catchers. They can be hung up all over one's home and mostly in the bedroom. They consist of amazing designs, and the stories and history behind them are fascinating. They can be purchased in a variety of colors, sizes, and designs. Tribe lore tells us that these dream catchers are meant to gather all of a person's dreams and trap the bad ones and the nightmares. Positive dreams are allowed to filter through and down the length of the feathers. The round hoop on this art work is a symbol of continuity and unity. You can even buy a kit for that special person so he or she will be able to make his or her own personal dream catcher.
Your recipient could be a doll collector or just a person who would like an Indian doll because she is interested in the culture. Whatever the case, this would be a lovely conversation piece, as this type of doll would not be dressed in frilly dresses and Mary Jane shoes. Rather, it would probably be wearing buckskin and moccasins with some beading. Choose a doll that may represent a particular tribe or just a general style of a doll that represents this culture.
You can also select a soft pair of handmade moccasins. They are a gift almost anyone can use both as casual shoes or comfy bedroom slippers. Select a pair with distinctive beading or fringe for more impact. Ask for the correct size before making a selection. These moccasins are so comfortable the recipient of your gift will never want to wear real shoes again.
Jewelry is another option. The pieces can be made of so many materials such as feathers, natural stone, turquoise, pewter, old coins, and silver. The bead work produced by many natives can be fascinating with the designs and color of the specific tribes worked into the craftsmanship. Select favorites from headbands, barrettes, rings, bracelets, chokers, necklaces, and ankle bracelets.
Other bead work items that may be available could include knife sheaths, book marks, and belt buckles. The more color and design that is integrated into the piece, the more interesting it will be. Kits may also be available for these interesting items.
Blankets are also popular items to choose from. The designs can match almost any color scheme or decor, and the blankets themselves are very warm and cozy. They make great throws, extra blankets, coverlets, or even wall hangings.
Present any of these gifts to your special recipient and you know he or she will be very pleased with your thoughtful and creative choices. The skill and past histories of the individuals who crafted the articles will be so apparent and make these items even more precious.
