I posted an abridged version of this to my stories, but in case my long absence has pushed me completely out of your feed, here’s another shot in the dark. I’m quite a bit rusty with self promoting on IG as I’ve done very close to none at all in the last few years, so please, bear with me while I navigate the algorithm’s trap doors and slow roll into your lives.
Hi! I’m finally making my way back to my favorite venture! In the next few weeks, I will be slowly relaunching Bang Bang Company, complete with all new products and expanded retail services, in a really big way, with a brand new website. I have amassed an amazing collection of handmade art, decor, Persian rugs, and sustainably produced one-of-a-kind clothing in preparation for this moment.
I lost my job of nearly a decade in February with zero notice, then my father - hardly a month later, after his long decline with dementia. I moved back to Brooklyn (from Austin) a few weeks after that, and arrived feeling as strange and bewildered as I ever have. But! I have been fortunate to retain my senses just enough to keep me on track to make this transition and see what this ol’ gal (me) can really accomplish with a fulltime commitment to a 12 year old meandering creative experiment - Bang Bang Company.
I’ve had a rough time navigating this abundance of loss the past couple years and though it’s taken a lot out of me, and with my heart and soul needing calm, I allowed myself to sit still and grieve. However, I reserved most of my creative energy so I could have something to motivate me through the fog when the time was right.
The right time is here and I can’t wait to share this with you all.
Stay tuned & I love you & thank youuuu!
xoxo Rina
