SKCreations, LLC Surface Design: New Naturally ME T-Shirt

Ever since I first introduced my Naturally ME series of t-shirts, I've had inquiries about making a long sleeve version available.  I liked the idea but it wasn't my focus at the time.  Well, I finally got around to designing the tee, and here it is:

Naturally ME Long Sleeve T-Shirt

The shirt is 100% pre-shrunk cotton and has contoured sides for a nice feminine silhouette.  It's very comfortable and durable too.

This Naturally ME design is currently the only one that is available in a long sleeve t-shirt.  The other designs in the series are still offered in only the short sleeve version.  They're all available in the SKCreations, LLC online boutique.

Happy Holidays!

SKCreations, LLC Surface Design: SHOES... Food for the SOLE!

Do you love shoes?  I certainly do.  I think a well crafted shoe is a beautiful work of art.  I even looked into classes to learn to make shoes myself at one point.  So far I haven't taken the plunge, but I never say never.  Until then, I've decided to create shoes in a different way.  My latest surface design collection features my drawings of an assortment of shoe styles.  It's titled SHOES... Food for the SOLE!  I've designed a t-shirt and canvas bag for the collection, and a portion of the sale proceeds will be donated to Soles4Souls, a global not-for-profit institution dedicated to fighting the devastating impact and perpetuation of poverty.  The products are available in the SKCreations online boutique.  Rather than feeling guilty about buying another pair of shoes, you can feel good about adding a little style to your wardrobe, that also helps someone in need.

SKCreations, LLC Surface Design: Naturally ME 6 T-Shirt

If we're lucky we will all age gracefully.  The hair on our heads will eventually turn gray, if we still have hair at all.  Most often I see people with gray strands or sections running through their hair, mixing in with their darker color, sometimes referred to as "salt and pepper".  This can be attractive, particularly on men in my opinion.  Some, though, will find that their entire head of hair turns a very pale shade of gray or even white.  I think that look is so strikingly stunning that I call it the "silver fox" effect, and I think it looks good on everyone I've seen with it.  If I was guaranteed that my hair would transform like that when I get older, I would welcome it.  My girl on the Naturally ME 6 Tee is a "Silver Fox".

SKCreations, LLC Surface Design: commUNITY T-Shirt

The third design in the UNITY series is titled commUNITY.  We don't have to travel far to help others.  We can spread a little love right in our own communities.  For example, whenever I go to the bank the tellers always ask how I'm doing.  When I respond I ask how they are in return, and more times than not they seem surprised by the question and thank me for asking.  I get the impression they don't hear that very often from customers, and it makes me feel good to put a smile on their face and maybe brighten their day.  It certainly makes me feel good, and a little kindness can go a long way.

SKCreations, LLC Surface Design: UNITY2 T-Shirt

The second design in the UNITY series, UNITY2.  The t-shirts are available in Ladies, Unisex and Youth sizes.

SKCreations, LLC Surface Design: UNITY T-Shirt and Canvas Bag

I designed the UNITY series after traveling to Senegal and The Gambia in West Africa last Fall.  Seeing some of the living conditions in those countries sparked my desire to create a line that would be tied to giving back, here at home.  The series consists of three designs, the first of which is shown on this UNITY T-Shirt and Canvas Bag.  With the sale of each of these products, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Capital Area Food Bank or SOME (So Others Might Eat).  Both organizations have a mission to provide assistance to the hungry, poor and homeless of the Washington, DC metropolitan area.  The products can be purchased in the SKCreations Online Boutique.

SKCreations, LLC Surface Design: Naturally ME 4 T-Shirt

SKCreations, LLC Surface Design: Naturally ME Noir - Special Edition

I have been thrilled by the response I've received on my Naturally ME surface designs.  It is a passion project for me so it's icing on the cake when customers tell me how much they love it.  There were a couple of inquiries about whether I would offer the t-shirts in black as well as in white, and the idea really appealed to me.  Black is bold and chic, and who doesn't love a black tee?  I decided to do it but I'd make it different than the original design, and it would be a Special Edition.  I set out on creating eight new designs of women with natural hairstyles, which would be shown exclusively on the black background.  Here is the finished product, Naturally ME Noir (that's black in French if anyone asks).  Unlike the original Naturally ME design, the individual hairstyles on the Noir tees will not be available separately.

There are two versions of the design: one with a red border like the one on the white tee, and one with a white border.  Why did I do two?  I just couldn't decide which I liked best, so why not have both?  The tees are now available in the SKCreations Online Boutique.

 

Also, as with all of the Naturally ME tees, a portion of the proceeds from sales of the Naturally ME Noir tees will be donated to Covenant House, the largest privately-funded childcare agency in the country providing shelter and service to homeless and runaway youth.  

SKCreations, LLC Surface Design: Naturally ME 5 T-Shirt

How do I wear my natural hair most days?  In a puff on top of my head.  I really love the look, and I usually add a little pop of color to it with a headband or scarf.  I feel it provides a lot of versatility, and looks great even on days when I'm not really feeling my hair.  It's easy too!  So, of course I had to design a t-shirt with my favorite style.  Here is Naturally ME 5.  It's available in the SKCreations Online Boutique.

SKCreations, LLC Surface Design: Naturally ME 2 T-Shirt

Ever feel like sporting those curly locs over to one side?  I love that look, which inspired my Naturally ME 2 surface design.  The t-shirt is now available in the SKCreations Online Boutique!
