Dr. Maya Angelou was a beloved writer, poet, dance, actress, director, master teacher and activist. Through her writing, Dr. Angelou gave us permission to love ourselves fiercely and to love others intentionally. Her writings celebrated the beauty of the human spirit in general and the resilience and experiences of women of African descent in particular.

She taught us why the caged bird sings. She taught us that if we couldn't change our circumstances, we could change our thoughts.

In her landmark poem Phenomenal woman, Dr. Maya conjured up a world where women could feel beautiful in any skin they were born in.

At Balebe, we believe that creating waistbeads is an important way to accentuate and express our unique femininity. We create because we are PHENOMENAL WOMEN living and thriving in unprecedented times. Beading is an ancient tradition that invigorates creativity, creates a calming environment and builds community.
