Our Story

Cute shop with items ranging from gifts, clothes, home decor and artwork. Such a large collection too! You think it’s just the front little shop, but head out back and there’s even more to see!

I have found the most exquisite, unique pieces at The Blue Flamingo! Everything I find becomes not only a conversation starter but a statement piece of our home! They also offer a wide range of hard to come by housewares and my favorite area of all is the open air space in the back where you with find up-cycled pieces, fountains, and more! The team at The Blue Flamingo takes great pride in our community and not only does that resonate in the infectious positivity you feel when you visit, but also in their support on community organizations such as the Manatee Nutrition Initiative. Everything I visit I leave not only excited about showing off my new purchases but invigorated by the passion that Andrew and his team infuse into everything they do!!

This place is the absolute best!! They have everything from paint to funny magnets and jewelry and furniture. Most of the products are from and support local artists so all the products are so unique. I really loved walking around and looking at everything I wish I wasn't in a rush! Lots of cool finds and really not too expensive as we are supporting handmade hard work! Will recommend and can't wait to go back

There are so many beautiful things to choose from in this store. I'll be back! A definite must-see in Bradenton.

Colorful interior. Lovely merchandise. Eclectic selections for rounding out your decor with accent pieces. Interior and exterior furnishings.

Very cool. Lots of great beach and Florida decor and gifts.

I happened across the blue flamingo by accident one day. Figured I'd just stopped in what could I lose. The store is fantastic doesn't look like much from the outside but the inside is awesome. I ended up getting paint to paint some furniture I have to have that restored look. Had a fun time doing it. Andrew the person that waited on me and helped me very helpful very friendly. You can get a lot of good ideas on what to do with some of your things you got laying around the house. Stop and you'll enjoy just looking around don't miss all the rooms.

Love the Blue Flamingo. Great ideas, different and friendly atmosphere. During this COVID time, certainly observe the guidelines and that makes stopping by there comfortable.

Awesome place to spend your time and $!! Well worth the trip

Love this treasure shop got the cutest ear rings and and nice face mask with octopus on it that Andrew's mother in-law made and I love. I get alot of compliments on the mask. I have to get another one for my husband. Come in and check out the great and unique ideas.

Wonderful people answered my many questions about Dixie Bell Paint and some of the amazing pieces they have.

I absolutely love this place! There are so many unique treasures to be found, and they are changing Inventory all the time so there’s always something new to discover. The one of a kind front door wreath I got there is one of my favorite treasures. It was made by a local artist. I smile every time I come home. I have also found many cool and unique gifts for friends and family. The owners are amazing. You can tell they really love what they do and care about their customers. This is more than just a store to them. It’s a place where they can reach out and connect to the community around them. I moved to Sarasota so I don’t get to visit as often as I’d like, but it’s definitely worth the drive when I’m on the search for something special.

What a great place! The Blue Flamingo is the only gift shop around that has something suitable for everyone on my list. Great customer service, great pricing, great selection and great quality! I highly recommend the Blue Flamingo!

Every time I shop here I find something unique. The shop is filled with everything from coastal decor to gorgeous artwork and funky gifts for the person who has everything. I always find something for myself too, and look forward to all the new items always coming in. Love supporting Drew and Michael and their awesome shop doing so much for the neighborhood. The Blue Flamingo is THE place to shop!
