Bath Fizzie Fun!



A Sweet Bath Treat!

What do you get when you mix one part yummy treat with one part Hollywood bubble bath? A truly unique bathing experience! Our cupcake bubble bath is hand decorated to look like a real cupcake. But, it's actually a solid bubble bath. A solid bubble bath? Yes! Our Berry Yummy Cupcake Bubble Bath is a blend of raspberry, orange and musk. It's berry yummy and you get two if you order online at www.talesbythesea.com!

The other item that Sandestin Resort guests just won't leave without is our Romance Fizz Ball! When you need a little romance in your life order this set of 2 bath bombs. Our pink bath bomb topped with a red heart is the bath bomb for you. A blend of jasmine, melon, rose, musk and woods is sure to put you in the mood at the beach or when you venture home.

Each handmade fizzie is packed with sizzling action and decadent moisturizing agents. Some of our fizzies even have surprises in the center.

Like the old commercial says...plop,plop,fizz,fizz, what a sweet treat from the beach this is. (at least that's how we think it went. wink, wink!)

Save the Tatas!



By all means, Save the Tatas!

Once breast cancer affects someone you love, you'll do anything to make a difference in the fight for a cure. Last year, my favorite mother in law, was diagnosed and is waging a fierce battle against this disease.

This product caught our eye at market and has been a hit with customers. A portion of each TaTa purchase goes to breast cancer research! The tanks are by far the most sought after item. Tales by the Sea also carries the tote bags, lip balm, hats, shirts and baby onesies. Some shirts are done BLING style others are screen printed with the pink ribbon and fun statements. Here are our favorites:

Caught you looking at my tatas!
Save the Tatas!
I love my little tatas!
Be vewy, vewy quiet...I'm hunting tatas! (baby onesie)
Give me your tatas and no one gets hurt! (baby onesie)

Show your support and watch your shirt make a difference.

PS: Have you done a self exam lately? Early detection saves tatas!

Scented Sea Glass Candle



Sitting by shore is one of my favorite ways to unwind after a stressful day. Often times I just sit and stare out into the emerald green water of the Gulf and count my blessings. The other thing I love to count and find along the Emerald Coast is sea glass!

Our pick of the day combines sea glass and a decadent guarana rose candle...Royal Palm Botanicals combined the perfect ingredients when designing this candle.

The soft glow from this guarana rose candle, with the exotic and energizing scent of the guarana fruit from the tropics of Brazil, can transform any room or bath into a sensual escape. The invigorating smell of guarana will soothe your mind and revive your senses.

This candle has a long burn time and when it's done a small tea-light candle will nestle in its center to continue the seaglass look and continue to give off the aroma! The tea light will shine through the sea glass for a romantic glow!

Enjoy!
