NEW! Hoop Huggies $45
Hoop huggies made with love, for people to protect the hoops they love.
Once you try a hoop huggie, you will never be without. What
fits inside? As many hoops as you can carry, in a shockingly small
footprint. The hoops nestle close (like bugs in a rug) and are protected
and out from underfoot. Quick access! Fun to use. I have seen children,
of their own accord, put hoops back inside a huggie when they are done
playing. Now available: Blue Sand (pictured) $45 Durable synthetic
fabric. Sage Rainbow (pictured) linen. Spring Green Dance, synthetic. Silk
Grey Stripe (silk fabric $15 extra).
Sage Rainbow huggie, with 15 hoops, could hold more!
Don't let this happen to you! I was repairing a torn cotton huggie ($35
somewhere online) and noticed that (*) plain-weave cotton tends to fray,
(*) and it was sewn with tension set on 'baste' over parts of the elastic
seam! My huggies cost a little more ($45) yet immediately you will notice
seams sewn to last, durable fabrics, and love. This is one hoop-pleasing
huggie! I use two, one for big hoops, one for small hoops.
Exercise Hoops $30 (child) $40 (adult) $50
Hoops made with love for people who want durable beauty.
"As a beginner, I had a great deal of trouble finding hoops. No stores
carry them, and instructors promised but were too busy to make hoops
despite best intentions. Out of desperation, I learned to make my own.
It's easy to make hoops -- if you want TEN!
Instead of struggling with
tapes, materials, and techniques, buy your hoops from Renee!

"I experiment
with the variables. In hoopmaking, I study tension, friction, and weight
characteristics. My favorite experiments involve adding bungee cords,
trying to perfect a "shoop shoop" sound (update: I've done it!) and,
speculating whether Musical Hoops could be constructed, with small air
holes that play as you spin?"
