Happy September to all our Sanibel Mermaids. We just want to thank you all for the love and support for our little mailbox. We never dreamed this little mailbox would become such a big part of our island. So many people have found our mailbox and experienced the love and magic it brings to all the mermaids and mermen who have visited. I just wanted to say Thank You to all those who have visited and who continue to return with Mermaid Magic for others to enjoy. Without each one of you the mailbox would not be a huge success. Our goal is to brighten someone's day, make mer-mazing fun memories and to put a smile on each visitors face. Thank You from the bottom of our fins to the tips of our Mermaid crowns. Fins Up and have a Mer-Mazing Sanibel Day. 🧜🏿‍♀️🧜‍♂️📬💓

Any one know of a reputable commercial screen print company? I had an agreement with one company on a price but then they changed it on me for a much higher cost per shirt. Nothing changed on design just their price. So I’m looking for an honest company that gives a quote and sticks to it. Anyone know a commercial screen printer?

Went to the mailbox today. Sadly disappointed. The box is basically empty. I don’t understand why people have to ruin such a beautiful gesture for others. The rule’s are simple, leave an item take an item. Some seem to be taking and not leaving. It’s a wonderful time to show some Sanibel Mermaid love to our visitors of the island during the summer months. This would be a great spot for shell fairies to sprinkle their painted shells as well. Please be kind to others and have a mer-mazing Sanibel day🧜🏿‍♀️🧜‍♂️📬💓
