Have cleaning supplies ever looked so fun before? The vision for Alice Supply Company was hatched – as most fabulous ideas are – over margaritas.

You bend over to tie your child’s shoe…and the world gets a glimpse of your thong. You know, the pink lacy one that accidentally got thrown in the wash with the load of darks and has therefore turned a dirty shade of pinkish-gray? Fear not, your whale tail days are over! Two enterprising young women [...]
