...because of sunshine and raindrops

Picture
when I started this new adventure, I thought I'd just take my little painted furniture to a few craft shows here and there   I picked the name re.invent.ed because I thought it fit what I was doing - repurposing some sad old furniture and turning it into something new

I never dreamed it would grow as quickly as it has and fuel the need for a website     so not having thought about it in the beginning, silly me never checked the availability of  reinvented with a .com      I played around with a few different versions of reinvented this .com and reinvented that .com and none of them sounded right to me     then an idea crept into my head     why not choose something entirely different but special in its own way? 

sunshineandraindrops.com        maybe?

if you are my Facebook friend, you have seen a few of my fortune cookies     I can't say I am superstitious or  believe in some sort of destiny, but as I was making a few big decisions about growing re.invent.ed those fortune cookies were spot on!     so I checked to see if this new website domain was available - yes it was      I still was a little worried that people might think it odd           what does sunshine and raindrops have to do with reloved furniture?      Well...

when I was little, my parents had the nick names sunshine and raindrop   They have always supported me in everything I have ever done    why not support my business with a website entitled the same?  

raindrop continues to support me in many wonderful ways     she has become chief picker of sad furniture, assitant store prop maker, and soon will be a trained Annie Sloan workshop leader     Sunshine is here supporting me in spirit      

as I wobbled back and forth about my website name, I happened to walk outside      there was bright sunshine to the west and big fat raindrops plopped down on my head       sunshineandraindrops.com?     I'd say that name sounds, well,  just about perfect
