LEGAL DISCLAIMER:
Annlee Cakes makes no implied nor express guarantees of any product and/or description thereof: Except our 30 day return/refund policy. And that every item we sell is crafted, created and or beaded, braided and made with care and concern.
Not intended as legal advice. Informational purposes only. Our legal statement policy for selecting merchandise for Annlee Cakes is that it must be culturally accurate of known Regalia and or Crafts, and Trulee Ann "Standlee" Wells does make,create and bead most items offered for sale by Annlee Cakes. We do include a few crafted products which are not considered Indian-made, as defined by Indian Arts & Crafts laws, including most commercially-produced goods (as the crafter is not duly registered but craft Indian-Style; but, are not "Indian Made" products by Federal Law: Example is our dear friend John who crafts Indian arrow heads and is a Master Straight Bow shooter. Our Regalia and Crafts are always guaranteed to be 100% authentic in styling and construction and hand-crafted: Never machine made!
Our Regalia and Crafts may be an original Creation Pattern by Trulee or are always patterned after Regalia Items seen worn at Pow Wows. Regalia is a very personal choice, and we respect that right of choice to each shopper to choose items they desire as new personal want.
Example: Leather is not hand cured these days either: It is commercially made as are beads, sinew and bone. Earring hooks and loops are manufactured as another example.
Example: Our Dream Catchers are hand picked and then hand formed and dried for 6 months from NATURAL VINES before being crafted, but the sinue used to craft the webbing is commercially made sinue and not the hand-"Indian Made" sinue of our Fore-Fathers from deer, elk and Buffalo.
We give the above examples because as we read the Department of Interior's Indian Arts & Crafts Board dealing specifically on "Indian Made" that the craft items used to create the "Made" end craft item itself must also be totally Indian Created as the Act is interpreted by our reading of the Act. Therefore, it is my belief it appears all Native Made Crafting falls into the category of being as crafted Indian Style rather than 100 percent "Indian Made" because as the examples indicate supplies used to create "Indian Made" items are not today 100 percent supplies that were "Indian Made". Based on this: We state: Our Regalia and Crafts are always guaranteed to be authentic in styling and construction and hand-crafted: Never machine made!
Mugwa! WHA-O-CHA-NI-STANDING Trulee Ann "STANDLEE" Wells aka.........Annlee Cakes
My main business is located in Arkansas City, Kansas.
I enjoy beading and crafts to display at the Pow Wows. Many of my creations are my own design: However, designs also are influenced by Pow Wow Regalia and other designs for the Circle from friends and people I meet along My Walk. None of my designs are copy protected so I invite any beader to enjoy making them if you desire. Native American Regalia is unique upon each individual, and some patterns are handed down family member to family member, and are displayed at the Pow Wows! If I see a bead pattern at a Pow Wow: I talk to the individual and get their permission to bead the pattern to the best of my ability: Before, simply just trying to copy it! That is the Native American Way!!
I also repair Regalia Items that may become damaged at a Pow Wow. In this regard I have had the Honor of repairing the Staff Eagle Feather, and other Eagle Feathers owned by members. This is a great honor!
At the Pow Wows' I also fix any Regalia item which needs repair for the Dancers such as fans, earrings,necklaces,clothing and beaded items.
The Pow Wow Tradition:
Tradition explains to us that Clans, Tribes and Nations did War against each other: Thus the War Parties!
Pow Wows were the Native American people's way of meeting together, to join in dancing, singing, visiting, renewing old friendships and make new ones between the Clans, Tribes and Nations for at a Pow Wow no weapons of War were allowed save for the knife. Warriors were not allowed to fight in physical combat.
The Warriors Dance arrived as a challenge back and forth as a mocking war between all in the Circle ( a taunting ). This Tradition is Still with us Today: On many reservations the Warriors Dance is private to registered members of the Tribe and Special people they invite. NO CAMERAS are allowed for the Warriors Dance, and this must be respected by all attending.
A Pow Wow is a time to renew thought of the old ways and to preserve a rich heritage. It is a sharing of stories, items exchanged and the feeding of all attending from the hunt and prosperity of the Tribe holding the Pow Wow. Friend or foe all were always fed! Fires were lit and dotted the night skies! Stories were told and sharing of good hunts.
