Reware Vintage Blog

Thanks to She’s A Betty for including one of our dresses in her bold florals post! I’m a huge fan of this blog, and love seeing us mentioned in it!

Fellow Handmade Detroiter Lish Dorset is a guest blogging for Metromode right now, and much to my surprise wrote an awesome blog about yours truly and Reware Vintage today! I’m honored to be a featured entrepreneur in her blog, and absolutely loved reading it!

Check out more of her blogs about indie entrepreneurship (and look at her super cute photo) here!

Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting with fellow Handmade Detroiter and blog writer Lish Dorset along with the organizers of the Green Street Fair to interview with Jason Carr of Fox 2 News here in Detroit!

We got to demonstrate a number of “green crafts” for Jason including a T shirt tote bag, another bag made from newspapers (which we will be making to sell at the Green Street fair as well), and my record notebooks! Other green items from fellow Handmade Detroiters, local, and nationwide companies were also promoted, and the whole thing was a lot of fun and very exciting!

It aired tonight locally in Detroit and was also broadcasted nationwide to Fox affiliates. For those of you coming to the site and blog for the first time - Welcome! For our “regulars” who may have missed it - check the story out here!

What you miss in the online version is news anchor Huel Perkins asking the audience to please not cut up their old records after the segment. We’ll have to try to get a copy of that, too.

Thanks so much to Jason Carr for making a terrific segment for us and making the whole process fun. And for inspiring me to listen to Frank Sinatra all day!

Lish Dorset from Handmade Detroit and I filmed a fun interview with Fox 2 news yesterday discussing DIY, crafting, Handmade Detroit, and our crafty biz’s! I even got to do a neato demonstration of my record notebooks!

It’s going to be airing on tonight’s news sometime between 5-6:30, and is also being broadcasted to all the national Fox affiliates! Watch if you can, and I’m sure we’ll post it on the blog somehow after it airs!

A few days ago I discovered that our little website was getting a ton of hits from this blog entry on Yahoo Sports. Confused, I read the blog, wondering what was being linked to Reware Vintage, and then I read the line “In a great move for everyone and everything save Mark Cuban’s Ghostbusters wallet…” and realized that that was our link. Awesome! I was very excited…but still confused. Does Mark Cuban actually have a Ghostbusters wallet? I need a Mavericks fan to please explain this to me, please!
