Handmade Detroit and Reware Vintage on Fox 2 News

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!

    You are now the most famous person I know. That is cool.

    Hey Beth! I have the part on tape with Huel making that comment. It’s on VHS (yeah, I know), but if you want it, let me know.

    @amy: Yeah, all we have is VHS too. Anyone out there with enough fliff for a Tivo copy?
