Come and make your beautiful rawhide rattle with Lu and Sue in the crystal barn.

On Saturday we will meet at 2pm. We will cut out rawhide for our rattles, sew the pieces together and stuff them to create the hollow shape. We will complete by 5pm and they will then be left overnight to dry.

On Sunday we will meet at 10am. We will fill our rattles, attach them to the handle and decorate them. Our rattles will be awakened when completed. We will finish by 12 noon.

Before the workshop you need to make a medicine walk taking tobacco as an offering. Hold the intention that you are going to meet the handle for your rattle and walk with a strong focus. When the handle shows itself to you, pick it up and leave a pinch of tobacco as a thank you.
