Christian Siriano Makes Over Your Kitchen Sponge


Fashion designer Christian Siriano is giving your kitchen sponge an extreme makeover.

The Project Runway Season 4 winner has teamed up with the O-Cel-O brand on new scrub sponges inspired by his 2011 spring collection. Launching now at retail locations nationwide, the scrub sponges offer fun and unexpected style for the sink - perfect for cleaning up your hot mess of dirty dishes.

"African, Indian and Asian influences served as the inspiration for my first-ever sponge designs," said Siriano. "Both patterns, Leopard and Muse, are meant to captivate the eye through the use of color and the latest trends."

The limited edition O-Cel-O™ No-Scratch Scrub Sponges are ideal for cleaning delicate surfaces from glassware and china to counters and stainless steel cookware. The scrub sponges are available in a 2-pack for a suggested retail price of $2.59 or a 3-pack for $3.60.
