Mi'Kmaq, First Nation Artist

Beautiful Handmade Indigenous Beaded Artwork.

Welcome to Kitpu Krafts. My business is 100% Canadian and Indigenous-made and owned.

I am a registered First Nations Mi’kmaq. (Mi’kmaw, Micmac or L’nu) Mi’Kmaq are Indigenous peoples who are the original inhabitants of Atlanta Canada.

I create everything from my home studio. I have been making various types of crafts for 30 years. I was taught by local elders. All of my jewellery is composed of by just myself.

My jewellery is meant to be enjoyed by everyone. I love watching colourful beads come to life. I have been selling to my local community for a while now via word of mouth, but I decided to share my designs across the globe.

In Mi'kmaq, "kitpu" means "eagle". It is considered a significant symbol in Mi'kmaq culture, often seen as a messenger of the Creator.

Translation: Eagle

Cultural significance: The eagle is a powerful symbol representing a connection to the spiritual realm.

Pronunciation: "Git-poo"
