The Color Orange...

You wouldn't believe how hard it is to simply pick a color that represents you and your business. Not knowing why, I just kept going back to orange. I looked at our color schemes and options all laid out together over and over and my eyes would always stop on the orange. So that is what I picked. Not feeling so sure about my choice, I called my sister to get her vote and she laughed when I said I had just picked orange because she had just been reading about what the color orange means. Weird huh? I tell ya, angels are guiding us! When you combine the "energy" of red and the "happiness" of yellow... you get orange which represents enthusiasm, creativity, and determination. That so says Ruth's Umbrella! Orange...it was meant to be.

A New Look...

We love our new blog design and logo. Carly, from Playful Pickles designed it for us and we love the bright, fun colors, sunshine, and energy that we get from it. Now to work on our website. I have to say that this whole part of starting a business is exhausting. So many decisions to make, a lot of waiting for things to get moving, and worrying that we are doing everything right. (Thus explaining why I haven't written since February) But, we are still in the game! So watch for our new website launch and the startup of our product lines! Send us a comment and let us know what you think of our new look!

If you want to be happy... Be!
