Hadih (Hello)

Welcome to our shop

My name is Holly West, I am the owner and operator of Heritage Shine Creations. I am originally from Takla Nation and live in Prince George on the traditional territory of the Lheidli T’enneh.

I am a mother of three, a partner, a hockey and powwow parent, and a full-time graduate student. I walk the Red Road and have been clean and sober for over 16 years. I am a Graduate of a Certificate in Business Administration (2014), Diploma in Accounting and Finance (2016), Bachelor of Commerce- Accounting (2018), Certificate in Aboriginal Studies (2023), Bachelor of Arts- Major in First Nation Studies, Minor in General Business (2025),
Certificate First Nation Public Administration (2025)

Guided by my ancestors who kept telling me, “If you build it, they will come,” I created this business to support Indigenous people, organizations, schools, and communities by reconnecting people to beading, regalia making, sewing, healing through ceremony, and learning traditional medicines. These practices help strengthen Identity, culture, and connection.

This name I chose is to let my heritage shine through the creations I made, as I am a self-taught regalia designer, and a bead artist. Handmade from the heart and now let me help you build your own brand. A good creation can always provide happiness to its owners. May the artisan spirit guide you on whatever path your creativity takes you on.
