We Moved!

Sunday, September 11th, 2011

skinnyskinny is pleased to announce the opening of our brand new storefront! We were lucky enough to find a gorgeous space only two blocks from our previous location, still in the heart of Williamsburg. We are now nestled on the corner of Grand Street and Roebling (268 Grand to be exact), and couldn’t be more thrilled with the location! I could go on and on about how beautiful the new shop is, but in this case pictures will speak louder than words. Enjoy, and we hope you visit our new space soon!

(Notice the cute puppy dog under the table? That’s Haley.)

Pictures from our recent Organic Soap Making Class

Tuesday, June 28th, 2011

The proof is in the pudding…or rather, in the soap! This past Sunday we held the first of our summer Organic Soap Making classes. We wanted to share some of the photos from the workshop with all of you. Feeling left out? Don’t forget to sign up for our next class! Sunday July 17th, from 12pm – 3pm.

Getting prepped for class.

Clara explaining the cold process of making soap.

We limit our classes to 8 people so everyone has ample time to learn the craft. We still have spots left for our July 17th class, but don’t hesitate to sign up as spaces fill quickly!

Proof of Our 1-Year Anniversary Party!

Wednesday, November 17th, 2010

(by Clara)

Our 1-year anniversary party was so much fun.  Just enough decadence, just enough debauchery, just enough friends…

If you don’t believe my words, here’s pictorial proof.  It was a great mix of great friends and new faces and of course, pumpkin cupcakes.  Go ahead and mark your calendar for next year’s festivities.


Enjoy the day! xx

(by Clara)

On November 13, 2010, skinnyskinny will celebrate our storefront’s one-year anniversary.  Now, we ordinarily don’t need an excuse to have a party, but we’re more than happy to share this celebration with everyone who has supported us throughout the past year. In short, we love you, guys (and gals).  We’ll have great sales, free samples, raffles, and of course, wine (special thanks to Josh) and refreshments.

When: 8-11pm, Saturday, November 13, 2010.

Where: 129b Roebling Street, Brooklyn. (718)366-2201 for more information or email: info@skinnyskinny.com

We hope to see you all there!

Organic Clementine with just a little Clove Body Scrub

Friday, October 8th, 2010

(by Clara)

So, our workshop/store already smells amazing.  Just ask anybody who’s ever been here.  On days, like today, when we make our awesome Organic Clementine and Clove Body Scrub, the whole place just takes on a slightly warmer, slightly home-ier scent. Clove, while not being at all overpowering in our recipe, is still so evocative of so many good things and nice times. Holidays, spiced tea, fireplaces, warmth… The best part is that it smells so nice on your skin.  The scrub is a blend of sea salt and organic turbinado sugar, jojoba, sesame and virgin coconut oils. It gently exfoliates while leaving your skin incredibly soft and moisturized.  It’s one of my favorite scent blends.  Just the right balance of sugar and spice.

Do You Drink Wine? We Can Help…

Sunday, October 3rd, 2010

(by Clara)

For all you folks in Brooklyn, we’re starting a new project (OMG! it’s so hush-hush…) and we’d be oh-so-happy to take your old empties off your hands.  We’ll even give you something awesome in return (we’re intentionally generous negotiators…). So, drop by our store at 129 Roebling Street with your empty wine bottles.  Say ‘hi’ and know that your empties are really truly being recycled.  So, drink up! It’s for a good cause.

Good Times…

Thursday, September 30th, 2010

(by Clara)

Having a store is pretty awesome usually, but one of the nicest things is that my dog makes so many friends.  I swear she seems to have more friends than I do.  This is my pup, Haley (the black one) with Blanche outside the store:

Have a good day, everyone.
