About Us

Taanishi, welcome to my long awaited page.  I am so blessed to have you here with me today.

 

My name is Echo Kowitch, I am Métis.  I grew up in Winnipeg, Manitoba and now reside in Edmonton, Alberta.  I am the proud mother to 7 beautiful children.  

 

I have always loved expressing myself through my art, but really got into beadwork around 2019, as a way of doing something special for myself and reconnecting with my culture.  It has been a dream of mine to start a website to display my work for some time now.  If you have ever tried to start a business, you know how much there is to plan.  The one thing that always held me back was the question of, what would the name be?  

 

In March of 2023 I lost my beautiful son Phoenix to a fentanyl overdose.  He was my greatest supporter and always asking me to bead him things.  I have chosen the name Red Eagle Gifts, in his honor.  

 

Please be patient as I navigate this journey to building the site.  It's both scary and exciting.  

 

I appreciate you.
