New Year - New Look for Raige Creations!

-
You have probably noticed that Raige has a new look. After one year, Raige began to feel like she had found her groove, and the old banner just didn't fit anymore. It was dated, dark, and just not right.  Bring in Judy, aka Portable Graffiti Graphics, and my husband, and voila! The fresh new Raige.
That makes it sound like it was easy. Well, as Judy found out, it never is that easy with me. Indecisive, picky, and often slow to respond, I changed my mind several times.  My husband, who may be a touch pickier than me, would add his opinion and a bit of his artistic critique, and we would be back to the drawing board.

In fact, we are still working out some details on this one. Stickers - round - a lot of information. This is the original. I had her change it, moving words, putting the web addys around the edge, but as I look at this one, I think maybe we will have to start back at the begining - this one isn't bad!. Sorry Judy - indecisive and picky rears its head again. 

In the end, though, I am really happy with the new Raige. It is just what I wanted, it makes me think fresh, unlimited potential, and that's just the road  Raige Creations & Vintage will be walking down this year. Exploring new directions, adding new patterns, items, vintage finds, and hopefully adding some fine arts to the eclectic mix that Raige has embraced.
Portable Graffiti Graphics walked with me on the journey to the new look of Raige, and provided everything needed for each of my shops. I have new banners, business cards, avitar, web ad, and soon those stickers that Raige will stick to everything she can. 
So now we embark on a new year of Raige, and I think it's going to be a good year.


Raige hopes that each of you have high hopes for the coming year as well. What is this year going to bring for you?

Walking on Wednesday - My Money Tree is Dead! What does that MEAN??

-

It's not the kind of money tree you are thinking.  I wish it was. But it is not. It is technically a Pachira . The name supposedly comes from a story of it's origin.  A poor man prayed for money, and then found this "odd" plant. He took it home as an omen, and made money from selling plants grown from it's seeds. I bought it at a grocery store when we first moved back to the states, in 2004 . We had just moved in to our own house, after being displaced from Hurricane Ivan , and our new place needed some green. This was the biggest plant, for the least amount of money , at the grocery store. It said it was ' foolproof ' , and that is the right plant for me ! I thought the name was an omen too, hoping it would bring good fortune, meaning a little money .  It decorated our living room in New York for almost 6 years ! During that time, about 2 years after I bought it, I tried to root it from clippings just for fun. It worked , and I grew another money ...

Music Monday! Just Dance

A surprise suggestion, this song was. I asked a friend-who-is-family for some ideas, as I wanted to do a Music Monday this week, but was having trouble picking a song. Just didn't have any that felt right at the time. So this friend, who by the way is someone we (hubby first actually) 'met' online. Communicated for quite a while before actually meeting in person. But you just know when you click with someone and we are going on over 8 years of friendship, I believe, though it feels like we have known each other forever. She has been a wonderful addition to our extremely small circle of friends. She is 'auntie' to my kids, she is who I vent to almost on a daily basis via messages, she is always willing to listen unconditionally. And that, my dear readers, is hard to find these days. She became family. Source So after complaining I was not inspired by any songs, she said she would see what songs came on over dinner with her Mama, and give me some ideas. Her Ma...

Raige Creations turns 1 year old next week. To celebrate, Raige is doing her FIRST GIVEAWAY! I can't believe a year has passed, and how far Raige has come. Certainly, the handmade community and its supporters had something to do with Raige not giving up, and Raige's customers are just the best! So to honor all you wonderful people, Raige is happy to give. What to give, you ask? 3 New Toekini's  TOEKINIS OF COURSE Toekinis have, by far, generated the most buzz at Raige Creations. It seems fitting to celebrate with one of them.  Every time I have Toekini's on my brain, I think "Life is good today" and this song from Music Monday  gets stuck in my head.with these lyrics: "I've got my toes in the water, ass in the sand,  not a worry in the world ,  a cold beer in my hand. Life is good today, life is good today." But life is good today, even if it is not yet summer here, and to celebrate - the giveaway will be your CHOICE of TOEK...
