<div>We are the <strong>Priest </strong>family, sisters Cinnamon and Heather Rae Priest, and daughters Stella Fletcher and Johnny Sequoyah.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>PRIEST FAMILY REVIVAL is our family legacy brand and creative enterprise. It blends Idaho heritage, craftsmanship, and regional pride. With deep roots in the American West, a shared vision for authentic storytelling, and our desire to give back to our local community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>THE BEADING PROJECT </strong>
</div>
<div>A workforce initiative created by Priest Family Revival that trains, supports, and employs women to create handcrafted beaded jewelry for the brand.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The program employs women in transition: post-incarceration, without housing, or living in a shelter, to create handcrafted jewelry and heritage goods.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Participants are <strong>trained in beadwork and paid a dignified wage</strong>, defying Idaho’s low minimum wage, and providing access to a unique opportunity.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>THE CHALLENGE</strong>
</div>
<div>Women in America experience poverty at a much higher rate than men. Children are the most impoverished demographic in the country, and women are raising the majority of those children.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Most women experience homelessness, incarceration, and domestic violence because of <strong>systemic poverty</strong>. Post-incarceration, women face barriers to employment, housing, and financial stability.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Without access to <strong>meaningful work,</strong> the risk of recidivism increases, and economic instability persists. Whether facing homelessness or coming out of incarceration, most available jobs are low-wage, unstable, and disconnected from identity or purpose.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>THE OPPORTUNITY</strong>
</div>
<div>Beading is found throughout time in most of the world’s cultures. It is not just a craft—it is an art form, and in many traditions, a spiritual practice. The art of beading is estimated to be 100,000 years old. Beads
</div>
<div>were once the currency for many cultures.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Craft and art have been proven to regulate the nervous system and build focus, patience, and tranquility. Beading is both a development in skill and a <strong>form of creative expression</strong>. Priest Family’s beading project will provide opportunity, community, fair-wage employment, and a supportive environment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Participants will learn beadwork techniques and produce pieces that will be integrated into Priest Family Revival’s product line.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>THE SOLUTION</strong>
</div>
<ul>
<li>Fair-wage opportunity for women rebuilding their lives
</li>
<li>Workforce development for women in Idaho by helping break barriers for re-entry into employment
</li>
<li>Build transferable creative and technical skills
</li>
<li>Foster stability, confidence, and agency
</li>
<li>Create a replicable model for ethical, craft-based employment
</li>
<li>Break the cycle of recidivism by offering training, vision, and inspiration
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>JOIN US..</strong>
</div>
<div>Please join Priest Family Reival, along with our community partners, in funding the first pilot cohort of The Beading Project.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We're building a working model that delivers training, fair-wage employment, and a supportive, creative environment—and a storytelling bridge between the artisan and the customer.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We're inviting you to help bring a scalable, dignity-driven model to life.
</div>
<div>Let’s do this together.

<div>More about<strong> Priest Family Revival </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>PFR is a living emblem of the American West: cowboys, outlaws, musicians, poets, mule packers, and artisans. At the heart of this lineage is Randy Priest, the legendary cowboy and hat maker whose work drew people from across the world to the small town of Donnelly, Idaho.
</div>
<div>Randy was not only a craftsman but a cultural icon—his hats, worn by ranchers, musicians, and wanderers alike, became symbols of independence and artistry.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Awarded the Idaho Governor’s Award in the Arts, he championed local sourcing and worked with artisans to bring authenticity to every creation. His legacy was not just in the hats, but in the spirit of the people who wore them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Our Vision</strong>
</div>
<div>We are the next generation—the new matriarchs of the Priest family.
</div>
<div>We are inheritors of this vision, carrying forward a tradition of artistry while infusing it with a modern edge. Our mission is to blend the timeless craftsmanship of the past with the energy of the future, reimagining Western culture as accesible lifestyle brand.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We honor our mothers and grandmothers—seamstresses, healers, and visionaries who infused this family with artistry and strength. Together, they form the backbone of a tradition rooted in resilience, creativity, and wild-hearted expression.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The brand will include: Cowboy Hats &amp; Headwear, Westernwear &amp; Apparel, and eventually Home, Lifestyle &amp; Spirits that bring Western heritage into everyday life.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Western wear is not just fashion—it is a feeling. In an age of division, we believe in uniting people through symbols of authenticity and liberation. Our designs are not costumes of nostalgia—they are garments of freedom, woven with the spirit of the land and people who made them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are building our brand from the ground up -- this is a family-driven, grassroots effort. We are knee-deep in implementing our vision, and we believe it's a good one. We need the support of our community to rally around us and bring this venture to fruition. As we all know, it takes a village. You, our contributors, become part of the story, our OG loyal patrons. You will be included in the PFR database and season pre-launch. Our family will always be incredibly thankful for your support and encouragement. We want to be on this journey with you, and as Randy Priest says, <em>If you want to get ahead, get a hat!</em>
