‘One-stop powwow shop’

winnipegfreepress.com ·

A Winnipeg shop, Trail Creations, has opened to cater to the growing demand for traditional Indigenous garb and accessories. Owner Jessica Lavallee, 39, set up the store after a 11-month trip with her family across the United States, where they attended 14 powwows. The Lavallees, who are from Saskatchewan and Florida respectively, aimed to reconnect with their cultural roots and learned their Indigenous heritage during their travels.

The shop, located in Winnipeg, features fabric, jingles, thread, and handmade items like jingle dresses and quilted bags. Lavallee hopes the shop will inspire customers to explore their own Indigenous culture, while her husband Tyler assists at the store.
