Beadniks of Montana and Puppet Pandemonium

Puppet Pandemonium and Beadniks of Montana are Montana-based creative brands founded by artist Trinity Gibson, featuring handcrafted puppets, jewelry, and wearable art designed to spark imagination and connection. Every puppet is individually hand-cut and assembled by hand, creating one-of-a-kind characters rooted in the storytelling world of Dragon Valley.

The collection includes the Signature Storytellers line, crafted from repurposed fabrics and specialty textiles, alongside Dragons & Friends puppets designed to encourage interactive, screen-free storytelling for children and families.

Inspired in part by Gibson’s personal experience with adoption and belonging, the work focuses on connection, creativity, and shared experiences through art.

For the Cherry Festival, the booth will also feature Beadniks’ popular Ice Cold Neck Coolies—lightweight reusable cooling wraps perfect for summer festivals, gardening, outdoor events, and travel.

With more than 8,500 puppets sold across six continents, the brands have developed a loyal following among families, educators, therapists, and collectors.
