What’s small, special, and uniquely crafted by Alaska Natives to fit perfectly in a stocking this holiday season? 

Krista Lucas at Alaska State of Mine creates one-of-a-kind items, such as stickers and earrings, that celebrate Alaska and are sure to brighten any stocking.

At Denali Dreamscape, Brooke Escobar creates colorful beaded creations, ranging from brooches to pendants in Wasilla, Alaska.

The Winter Watchman’s Daughter: Memoirs of Life on the Nushagak  is an engaging book written by Mary L. Dinon. Mary shares the story of her grandmother, Ella Nielsen, who grew up along the Nushagak river as the daughter of a cannery winter watchman and also as a wife of the cannery watchman at three Nushagak historic salmon canneries. 

Northern Shimmer Gift Shop, owned by Alaska Native Ginger Williams, creates handmade jewelry and accessories using porcupine quills, beads, fur, and other materials. This holiday season, a wonderful stocking stuffer could be one of their incredibly unique necklaces from the “shades of blue” collection.

There’s always a unique stocking stuffer in the Shareholder-Owned Business Directory, where you can find something special exclusively from Alaska Native-owned businesses.
