Open For Business
That’s right. We will now be accepting online orders through our email: thetemporarytattooproject@gmail.com
Please just include the tattoo(s) you’d like to order and how many of each. And we’ll check you out. (Ha, the more I write in this blog the more narcissistic and entitled to write horrible copy I’m feeling…) We have all the details including sizing and...
Thanks + Tattoo Logistics
From Lauren and I, (excuse my teeny-bopper mirror photo, there were limited options post party at my apartment at 1am…) we just want to say, thank you to all of you who came out last night to support The Temporary Tattoo Project x Givology and Flying Kites! The turn out was overwhelming and we are so excited to have kicked off in such a big way.
Now down to business. I never thought I...
tart-pastry asked: I'm the human behind the Flying Kites Tumblr. So here's a huge thanks for the follow:)

Thanks.

Meet Us
I was on my way back from a mini respite in Hawaii, my hometown.

While initially, instantly intimidated by their all too heartwarming profile pictures with iStock worthy adorable children smiling earnestly into the camera—after actually speaking with them, they are a group of some of the most friendly, down-to-earth, interesting people you’ll ever meet. From the initial novel length email Leila was...

Lauren and I had planned to converge randomly after the two of us had had separate brunches in equally as tantalizing East Village locales. True to form, we decided to get more food and celebrate the coming of spring with expanding waistlines masked by...
