Carol Kinney: Co-Captain Team We ReCreate USA Where do you create? I have an extensive dye studio in my basement and a spare bedroom that’s been converted into my office/photo studio. Why did you choose to sell tie dyes? My husband challenged me to make him some tie dyes and other people seemed to like what I created. I’m also working on adding 60’s/70’s vintage items to match the era of my dye style. I have an eclectic mix of new, upcycled and eco-friendly clothing, art and home goods and specialize in ice dyes and custom orders - something for everyone! What’s the inspiration behind your ship name? Being a tie dyer, I get asked this a lot! It came from a Pink Floyd song, but the name also refers my mission to spread hope and love through my art. I had to drop the “s” for Etsy because it was too long to fit their allotted characters. What’s your favorite summertime song? I could create a whole playlist, but if I had to choose just one, it would probably be the Grateful Dead’s “Sugar Magnolia/Sunshine Daydream” medley. What do you love most about Team We ReCreate? The members have become like family and I’m forever grateful for all the knowledge I’ve learned and keep learning from them all.
