Basket Weaver
Basket Weaver
John Henry’s basement, where he spends a lot of his time during the winter months making baskets. 
John Henry has been making and selling baskets all his life. John Henry remembers years ago before the bridge was built, he would carry 10 baskets at one time across the frozen river and they would each sell for $0.65 each. Today, the price of baskets range in price from small baskets at $25.00 to large baskets at $45.00.

 
Christine makes beaded crafts during the winter months then sells them at Pow Wows the following summer.  Her future daughter-in-law, Tammy, as well as her granddaughter, Paige, assist in the beadwork.  Christine made mukluks for her grandson, Peter, when he appeared in an episode of “Emily of New Moon”.
