There’s a wonderful Christmas shop in Santa Fe, New Mexico, that has beautiful clay ornaments made by American Indians. The shop has been closed off and on, at the whim of the state’s governor, for months. I am on the owner’s email group and in November she wrote that she had received some Seonia nativity ornaments. By the time I called she was out of them, so I said just mail me one when they come in. So on the 23rd it arrived. It was made by Ashley Seonia, a Navajo Indian in a Pueblo close to Santa Fe.
@gijsje@beryl@mittens@happypat@ludwigsdiana@joansmor@grammyn@carole_sandford@onewing Thank you all so much. I have collected Indian ornaments for years for my Cowboy tree, they each have a story, I’m thinking I should write a note for each of them when I store them. My granddaughter absolutely loves them and truth be told, they will be hers someday.
@louannwarren writing a note is a great idea. So much of what we know is lost if we don't write it down! Loved the Christmas card tht arrived today too!
