Reuse, Recycle, REFRESH!

Refresh's Shop Announcement

Welcome, thanks for stopping by! Refresh by Midori embraces recycling, function, and art by using elements of recycled, or natural/earth friendly materials in each piece. I picked those materials because I feel extra good when I recycle, I like making a difference in the world with my work, recycled materials fit nicely in my budget, and I figure with the name "Midori" which actually means "Green" (in Japanese), why not live up to the name and "Go Green"? Our environment and how we treat Mother Earth is a serious matter, yet making a difference and being aware can be fun! Every item has been refreshed by Midori with love & respect, all while leaving a smaller ecological footprint. Handmade in the Red, White, and Blue, Baby. Let's Go Green!

You can hear me as "the voice" of the www.181.fm "Chilled Out" online radio station which plays all downtempo chill music, and I'm also the "the voice" of Liquid Blue Radio on Live365, which plays a mix of POSITIVE music. Along with creating crafts, I write, record, and produce voiceovers. If you would like a custom message created for your business other than the voicemail or website greeting I currently have a listing for, "convo" me and I'll create a custom voiceover listing just for you.

Refresh by Midori products are available locally at People's Organic Food Market in Ocean Beach, California and the newly opened OBCentric on Santa Monica Blvd. in Ocean Beach.

Looking for something special you don't see in the shop? Custom orders of all kinds are welcome, please ask!

I will ship outside the USA, please "convo" me for a shipping quote.

Refresh is honored to be a member of EcoEtsy! I use recycled packaging & shipping materials, please keep the cycle going.

Refresh is a proud supporter of the Frances Klauser Memorial Scholarship Fund at Lapeer High School in Lapeer, Michigan, which helps make it possible for a Special Ed student to attend college. The scholarship was established in 2004 in honor of one of the first Special Education teachers in Michigan (the 1st Special Ed teacher in Lapeer County), she was also my grandmother and lovingly taught me the skills & importance to creatively make due with what little you may have.

Inspirations include: Andy Warhol, Leonardo Da Vinci, Bono, Horst Rechelbacher, Martha Stewart, Living with Ed (Begley Jr.), Tyree Guyton from the Heidelberg Project, Sarah McLachlan (the creator of Lilith Fair), Alyssa Milano (as well as being a great actress, her line "Touch" is in every MLB ballpark), and my family.
