I have to give a BIG ol shout out to my super talented, super fun, super crafty BFF Scot Kemp for his amazing collage work. He’s been doing crafty collage designs for years and when I mentioned that his designs would be great on tags for some skirts he crafted up a beautiful piece just for me! You can see bits of it online at the orangyporangy shop, and I’ve posted some larger images here so you can get a goood look at it. Scot has a happy little blog where you can see some of his other work too, http://www.macrabeeworks.blogspot.com/

this is his fabulous wine label design for Eric Kent Wine Cellars in CA

it’s finally spring so we’re (slowly) releasing some fun new skirts to celebrate — our VINTAGE remix a-line puts a new spin on the classic opal style. Remix skirts are created by piecing together panels of vintage materials like antique tablecloths, colorful 60s linens & kitchy 50s curtains with familiar fabric remnants from our past line of skirts in hopes that no fabric will ever feel unwanted again! it’s just another way we recycle, repurpose and reuse. This is orangyporangy’s first line of absolutely one-of-a-kind skirts, (poly skirts are often one-of-a-kind too) and they’re evolving as each one is sewn. Watch for a true release of the line in early MAY! Until then here’s a little preview…

orangyporangy is featured in the Indie Fixx spring fashion giude this week — indie Fixx is a totally cute site that brings you the latest indie designers in fashion, jewlery and other handmade goodness.
