The rattle is used ceremonially and as a tool by healers. I make Turtle
Shell rattles as well as Antler Rattles.
Turtle
Shell Rattles
I make turtle shell rattles
with Juniper or Willow wood handles and
I use round pebbles collected from an ant hill or pebbles I collect from
mole hills above timberline.
Blue corn is also used in some instances.
Each shell is carefully hand-drilled and deerskin is sewn over both ends.
