Perfect for Jingle Dresses
Jingle Dress
Jingle dress is a dance dress worn by women participating in the "Jingle Dress Dance" at Native American Pow wows. Made of cloth, the dress includes several rows of metal jingles (cones), which are sewn across the dress on the skirt (and blouse, in some areas). The metal cones create a jingling sound (giving them the name they are most often known by) as the dancer moves.
The traditional Jingle Dress Dance is characterized by the jingle dress and light footwork danced close to ground. The dancer dances in a pattern, her feet never cross, nor does she dance backward or turn a complete circle.
Compared to the original dance, the contemporary dance can be fancier, with intricate footwork and the dress design is often cut to accommodate these footwork maneuvers. Contemporary dancers do often cross their feet, turn full circles and dance backwards. Such moves exemplify the differences between contemporary and traditional jingle dress dancing.
Jingle Color Options
Pre-rolled and ready to wear, our Missouri River pattern Jingles are one of our most popular items. Measuring 2-1/2" in length, they bear the "Missouri River Snuff" brand that's reminiscent of the old snuff can lids. In addition to our standard Tin and Gold finishes, they are also offered in the newest color: Copper!
Avaliable in Child's Sizes
Our Childs Jingles are scaled down for the younger dancers, measuring approximately 1-3/4" in diameter, and in the same great quality as our adult size jingles. Pre-rolled and ready to wear just like our full size ones, they also bear the "Missouri River Snuff" brand reminiscent of the old snuff can lids. In addition to our standard Tin finish, they are also available in Gold.

I ordered these jingles to use with stained glass mobiles. What I failed to realize is that they don't actually have any jingle to them but will jingle when spaced close enough to clink together. The sound is more a 'tink' than a jingle. While they are not what I had thought, I've found they are thick enough to be sturdy to use in various ways. The pattern is from a snuff can lid as the word 'snuff' is printed on them. I discovered this after rolling one out. The copper works good with my stained glass so I only need to flux and solder. I've drilled holes into them and hung them from a mobile too. I have 100 so I'm going to keep using them in crafts. Overall I'm happy with them and will not ding a star just because I didn't understand what I was buying.
