Frill Seekers named "Best of the Beach!"


SPECIAL NEWS BULLETIN! All national and international media on high alert!
Frill Seekers Gifts of Sandestin named: "Best of the Beach!"

As our 15 year old daughter would say, "OMG!" Yes, OMG, Frill Seekers Gifts, Sandestin location was recognized by our precious shoppers in Birmingham, Alabama as one of the
best places to shop in Destin, Florida!
To say the "paper dolls and guys" are excited would be an understatement. We are F*R*E*A*K*I*N out!

First, we want to thank our loyal Birmingham shoppers & VIP's! One of our favorite clients came in to tell us (important note: when you read this next line, you should project your best deep Southern gentile accent)"that she was at the Birmingham Country Club and all the ladies around the pool were just ravin' about a neat store in Sandestin, called Frill Seekers Gifts." She said she just laughed and told all of them that SHE was a regular and even had her credit card on file at the shop for regular purchases shipped right to her home!

Oh, the country club ladies were stunned, they did NOT know you could do such a thing. They all excused themselves to different locations around the pool and called Frill Seekers and INSISTED that their credit cards also be listed ASAP in the VIP book for future orders. D-O-N-E! When they returned poolside, they all just smiled at each other knowing that they were now VIP's at the shop known as "Best of the Beach!" Humpf! (true story)

We love our clients! That's for sure.
BIRMINGHAM BONUS: 20% OFF item of choice if you have a Birmingham ship to address. NOTE: BIRM BONUS in order note section now thru Monday to redeem.

Get organized this school year! written by Heidi Locicero


Best Calendar evah!

When Mr. Frigidere first invented the refrigerator, I'm certain that he had NO idea that it would eventually become a photo gallery of sorts. It seems obvious that he thought it was merely to chill the food and ice the meat and milk.

Fast forward to Mr. Kodak, who made taking photos a national pastime---and---whala! What a great place to put photos and your weekly calendar...a la refrigerator!

This fabulous calendar is personalized and comes with 2 handy super duper magnets to adhere right to the front of the fridge. Great for back to school. Here's the scoop:

Set of two personalized calendar pads, 30 sheets each, helps keep track of family activities.

• Magnet backs for posting on refrigerator (may not adhere to every type of refrigerator).

• Personalized with last name and up to three first names, in black ink.
• 8.5" x 11".
• Proudly made in the good old USA.

Priced to sell at just $39.99 plus shipping. FREE personalization. To order log on to: www.frillseekersgifts.com

Funky Shirts for Back to School by Heidi Locicero Baton Rouge LA



Why is it that summer flies by, but the school year drags on? I really wanna know! These children are so happy it must be summertime.

This school year will not be a drag if your little one sports one of our funky t-shirts!
What child wouldn't love a fun colored t-shirt with their name front and center?
Or how about one that states, "Kindergarten Rocks!" The best one we shipped last week said, "Preschool Rocks!" Soooo cute.

Another cool option for sports fans, is to have your name printed on a white t-shirt in your favorite teams colors. A tiger fan could order purple and gold. A Bama boy could order crimson red. You get the point.

One of our favorite clients from Kentucky, Kari Guiler Kirn, ordered a shirt for each of her kiddos and took their Christmas card photo in them. It was P*R*E*C*I*O*U*S! I'll dig up a photo for you guys to see.

Get creative!
