Welcome to Auggie Froggy
What I've been working on
It is beautiful out today! We mailed out some shoes and masks, dropped off a fun batch of masks at school, and then we visited this cool mural in our neighborhood. It's by @pinksamureye. This mural is titled "Forest Goddess"
Auggie Froggy is committed to making sure that Black and Brown children see themselves as heroes, mermaids, princesses/princes, astronauts and whatever else they dream of. I believe it's also important for white children to see a wider representation so that they too can imagine Black astronauts. If you've never looked at representation in fabric (and books, and toys, and on…) you might be surprised to find that white is the default, but I'll keep supporting brands and designers which include Black and Brown children in their designs. Note: these masks are not for sale, they are going to Auggie's school which is making sure that all of the families in our community have masks. #representationmatters #madeinDC #blackgirlmagic #blackboyjoy
Hey, local Petworth and nearby friends, I am working with @littlecocosdc to have some masks available through their daily grocery pick up program. These styles are in stock and available now. The glow in the dark unicorns and the dragons and shields are kid sized, the rest are adult sized (swipe to see second page). Coco's offers handmade pasta, lots of amazing grocery options, and all of the toilet paper your little heart desires! All of my masks are two layers of high quality quilting cotton, have ties for a secure and comfortable fit, and have an opening for a filter pocket. The kid size is intended for age 3+. Be sure to keep a close watch on younger kids wearing any mask.

It's official, we can print postage and ship stuff now! I'm still not going to the post office, so I'm not mailing boxes (I've explored pick up options and they won't work in our building), but anything that fits into a padded envelope can go out. Hurray! Let's support the USPS this summer 📬️
Did you know that the correct plural of octopus is octopodes? That's because the word octopus is Greek, but at this point octopi (the Latin plural) is acceptable too. Anyway, soda bottles on blue and octopodes with gold are headed out this week. If we're going to wear masks, they may as well be cool, right? Get in touch if you need masks, and I'll let you know what's available!
PRIDE is just around the corner and I'm getting ready!
These sassy rainbow unicorns are headed to California this week!
