Can You Dig?

These days you can customize just about anything — jeans, laptops, boyfriends.

But let’s face it: The basic product’s always already established. You’re just gussying it up a little.

Not so with Shindig’s invitations and party graphics, paper goods to match themed engagement showers, bar mitzvahs, and old-fashioned bitch fests. They also do menus, place cards, party favors, even pop-art note cards plastered with the client’s likeness.

Peek into the portfolio and find a Martha’s Vineyard save-the-date with sand in the packaging, an invitation spoof on Diddy’s white party, and a birth announcement made from felt teddy bear cutouts.

Orders can be done by phone or e-mail — or they’ll gladly come into the city for one-on-one meetings, powwows, or sessions with your wedding planner, overzealous mother, or metrosexual fiancĂ©.

Now that’s a personal touch.
