Guess what? These are ecofriendly, completely non-toxic polishes in amazing shades. PRITI nail polishes do not contain known carcinogens like toluene, formaldehyde and DBP (Dibutyl Phthalate). They are also cruelty free and safe to use by mothers to be, which is kind of a hard find when it comes to nail polishes! We’re only selling these in our shop, not online, so stop by our Brooklyn shop and take a look.

very rudimentary design for t-shirt
We’ve heard that some of our fans and customers are talented on the design front. We’ve also heard that some are not, but that’s alright. We’re pretty sure the not-so-creative ones among us are good for laughs, getting coffee, what-not… My point is that everyone has their respective strengths, but for now we are seeking out creativity. Anyway, we will soon be getting some new (ie, AWESOME) t-shirts printed and thought we’d like to make a contest of it all. These tees will be organic cotton and printed with eco-friendly inks.
So, what’s in it for you, the creative participant? Well, the winning design will get $150, plus $50 in skinnyskinny products. And if that’s not enough, you’ll also get the fame, glory, and skinnyskinny adoration.
The specs:
Preferrably the designs would be for 1-2 color printing, but if it’s like the best design ever, then we’ll print 3 color.
Designs can be posted here or on our skinnyskinny fan page , but the completed file should be emailed to info@skinnyskinny.com .
Files should be Illustrator, Photoshop, or PDF.
Print size should not be larger than 10″x10″.
Deadline is March 14, 2010.
So, get to work! We need some new shirts.
Questions: just email us at info@skinnyskinny.com
And here’s a skinnyskinny logo for you to work with. Feel free to change color and size.
At skinnyskinny, we always try to go above and beyond what is expected of us. I think of it as going the extra mile, though I’m not a runner and we should all probably try to drive a little less. Whatever. The point here is that we’ve added some excellent new gift cards just in time for Valentine’s Day. They are printed on 100% PCW paper, of course. And you get one free when you send a gift. We’ll even hand-write a message for you.
First up: you make me happiest.
you make me happiest
Next: i love almost everything about you. (who doesn’t love a sense of humor?)
i love almost everything about you.
And third: i love you more than _______. (you can even fill in the blank!)
i love you more than ________.
These will be added to our site shortly. We’re also adding some limited edition Valentine’s products. More on that later.
skinnyskinny is happy to announce the arrival of a few new organic and eco-friendly products:
Handmade wood soap dish
This is one of our new soap dishes, made by hand from salvaged and reclaimed hardwoods. Each is unique and one-of-a kind. Get yours here.
Next, we have two new additions to our organic potpourri family. First up is Lemon, Lime and Ginger (which you can buy here):
organic lemon lime and ginger potpourri
And next, we have Organic Orange and Fennel potpourri, available here.
Organic Orange and Fennel potpourri
So, what do you all think?
For anyone who knows me, you will know I have been on a quest for some time now to re-hab potpourri’s image. Usually, when I tell someone that I’ve been working on it, I’m lucky if the person just says ‘huh…?’ Often enough, there’s outright derision. Well, to prove to all those nay-sayers that potpourri can be as beautiful, enticing and complex, here at long last is skinnyskinny’s first entry into the potpourri world: Organic Lavender & Sage Potpourri.
skinnyskinny Organic Lavender & Sage Potpourri
All of the ingredients in this blend are certified organic. It’s made from lavender buds, white ceremonial sage, lemons and limes (that we cut and dried ourselves), roses, birds’ eye chili peppers, and lots of other little goodies. This potpourri is great as a room freshener or in sachets. The scent is strong and well-balanced. It’s not overly cloying or perfume-y. It’s really lovely. And it can be yours very very soon, basically as soon as it gets added to our site.
UPDATE: It is done. Go here to get your own. And say good-bye to cinnamon and pine cones in your potpourri. We’ll be adding our superb Orange and Fennel potpourri tomorrow. Just wait til you see (and smell) that one. It’s gorgeous all around.
