Scott

I am Krys'tena Paige Scott. I started making beadwork when I was 8 years old. My passion began early in life and has taken me on a journey to designing and creating original jewelry, incorporating both traditional and contemporary designs. I draw inspiration from my Native American roots as Northern Cheyenne, Crow and Sioux, as well as my life on the Wind River Indian Reservation.

I find peace when creating my beadwork, and I hope my creations bring the same peace and joy to those who wear them. I use joyful colors and designs that are not common in traditional beadwork, but my heritage shines through in everything I design.
