I’m Kathleen — Dene and European, born in Hay River, NT. My Auntie taught me to bead, and I’ve been creating ever since.

Each piece carries medicine, humour, and northern spirit — handmade, rooted, and unapologetically Indigenous. Hi, I’m Kathleen, the beader behind Aut’za’mee Design Co.! Of Dene and European descent, I was born in Hay River, NT, and have always loved anything that lets my creativity shine. When my Auntie taught me how to bead, it was game over—I fell in love with the art, and I’ve been beading ever since!

It’s always such an honour when another Indigenous artist, especially one whose beautiful, world-renowned work you admire chooses your earrings as gifts for her family 🩷

I have so much admiration for you and your artistry, so knowing you appreciate mine means more than you know ✨️🫶

Thank you for thinking of me, for your support, and for being part of this lil big brown girl’s dream. I hope your family loves their earrings as much as you do! 🩷

A little heart, a little beadwork, and a whole lot of personality 💛

Handcrafted tufted heart necklace on brain tanned hide, finished with gold tone accents and a little charm to make each one your own.

I love how something as simple as adding a charm can make a piece feel completely different. A little initial, a meaningful symbol, or just something that makes you smile. I chose "A" for Auntie for this pic 😜

Traditional artistry with a contemporary twist. That's my kind of jewellery.

Handmade with love in Treaty 8 ✨

Such a pleasure creating this special piece for someone I met while doing a show in Yellowknife.

They wanted a bolo similar to one we affectionately called the Aysanabee Bolo. Sent me the colours they loved and gave me the creative freedom to design something uniquely theirs. This is what came to life. 💙

I'm always so happy when one of my pieces finds its way back home to the Northwest Territories. I swear a little piece of my heart and soul goes along with every one.

A special thank you to my lovely client for trusting me with this piece and for being so kind and patient throughout the process. It's people like you who make what I do that much more meaningful.

And thank you, as always, for supporting this big brown girl's dream. It means more than you know. ❤️

POV: the bolo ends arrive and suddenly everything else on the to-do list is cancelled. 😂

Look at these beauties though. 👀✨

Now I just need to decide which ones deserve the first Autzamee treatment.

What teachings do you hold sacred ✨️?

Should I drop more F bombs 💣?

Do you comment on people's lives 🙊 ?

Do you like to share 💖 ?

Should I be blocked 🚫 ?

Do i give a damn 🤔 ?

From Folk on the Rocks to Ontario 🌸

These beauties are headed to someone I met in Yellowknife who still holds the North close to her heart...kinda like me 🩷

And that feels like a pretty good place for them to land 🛬
