2010 saw the creation of the RENAÎT label and after the endeavours and donations of handmade products successfully managed to help raise funds for charity and many worthy causes, I thought it about time that 2011 help take RENAÎT to a new level.
Appologies for the previous lack of posts but time told as per usual - now is a good time for you to also note that future posts are most likely to be sporadic aswell (sorry in advance), but I will try. I know all my dithering and dathering is not very professional - far from it in fact - and for that, I am also sorry, but 2011 will take me on a journey of enlightenment, self discovery and healing and RENAÎT is coming along for the ride too, if only to report on my findings and document my discoveries.
On a positive note, and a highly productive one, RENAÎT has opened shop over at Folksy. For those of you who have not yet visited, here are the highlights:
The shop features one of my better philosophies of "beauty and serenity is all around us, it lies in the forgotten, the hidden and the ignored - we must look in the shadows and search if we are to be truly at ease in this world." All the products are handmade and use upcycled materials where possible. RENAÎT is 100% philanthropic which means that 100% of the 'profits' will go to charity and other worthy causes (yes, really). To enable RENAÎT to continue fundraising only costs (bare minimum) and charges (unavoidable) are deducted - labour, love, time and effort are all donated free as part of a journey to self-discovery and healing.
