Annleecakes on Squidoo

My name is Trulee Ann "Standlee" Wells.

At Native American Pow Wows I am available to make quick fixes to Regalia. One year, I was honored as a Medicine Woman when they brought me a downed Eagle Feather during activities in the Circle and I was able to repair it and have it returned to the Circle. This was a blessing from Creator and Mother Earth.

I am a Master Cake Decorator and Creator of Wedding Cakes, and I am a crafter of hand created seed beaded items of distinction, and many Regalia Quality Native Arts in Arkansas City, Kansas 67005

Wedding Cake decorating is my passion. I opened Annlee Cakes for Weddings.

Our Story
Why did you start your business?
Many years ago I discovered I had talent decorating cakes and enjoyed doing them. After a bit, it became quite clear after over 20 years of decorating Wedding cakes, that I should open and build Annlee Cakes. I saw a need for personalized interactive working with customers and fulfilling their Dreams about their own Wedding Cake. And our desire to be 100 percent "Interactive" with every single Customer! That is you! We respect and honor the rights of every shopper. Our cakes are "freshly" made and never pre-frozen waiting to be decorated. We are a small family business. Seeking the American Dream! In 2009 and 2010 I decided to expand my original idea and opened four divisions of Annlee Cakes including Annlee Cakes Native American Regalia and Crafts. This includes our Book Division and our Art and Paintings Division representing Arkansas City Artist/Author Robert William Vincent, as well as my Pow Wow vending booths division.

Every buisness which is locally owned strives to work through this financial crisis in the united States, and that is one main reason: I suggest, BUY LOCAL when ever you can!

Every item we craft is then cleansed the Traditional Ways with the use of the Sacred White Sage and is ready to enter the Circle.

If you see a design you like but desire different color combinations to fit Your Regalia remember we can create it for you. We do make what you see and we can make Your's for your Regalia.

To-Day beaded copies of designs are made commercially and in great numbers and yet there still are some traditional Medicine People who do hand-craft and create cultural styled regalia jewelry which is not commercially mass produced but are each hand crafted the traditional ways.

You can find real crafters at Pow Wows by simply asking if they can craft YOU a Special Order item with the bones and decorations YOU PICK. If they can you discovered a real traditional crafter and not a mass produced seller. It is like a REAL SEED BEADER who can create a Special Order design of YOUR CHOICE of colored seed beads to use in the finished pattern item. Mass produced people whom are simply sellers cannot do this simple test? Hand-crafting is a learned skill and it is an art of Culture and Traditions. And, please remember just as you go to work expecting a living wage in these days: So does a genuine traditional crafter deserve the same concept and respect of their Mother earth gifted abilities as Medicine People. WE ARE REAL GENUINE CRAFTERS...You like one of my designs but desire different colors...We can do that!

You have found a real crafter To-Day!
