Beading needles, beading thread (nymo), Beading tray Originally, Native American beads were carved from shells, coral, turquoise and other stones, copper and silver, wood, amber, ivory, and animal bones, horns, and teeth. Glass beads were not used until the colonists brought them from Europe 500 years ago, but like horses, they quickly became part of American Indian culture. Almost as soon as seed beads were available, native women invented two techniques for using them: loom beading and appliqué embroidery. Those two techniques are still in use today. Loom-beading and a form of single-needle weaving (peyote beading) are not adaptations of techniques known to European or other cultures; they are native inventions. The earliest bead looms were improvised, using slit birchbark or carved wooden combs to hold the warp threads apart. Today larger bead looms are sold in craft shops, but homemade bead looms are still mostly used by native weavers.
