UPDATES! UPDATES! UPDATES!

So it's been a crazy couple of days since we got this thing rolling! A few more projects have come our way & we want to tell you all about them!

We have decided to donate a portion of the profits from our first year to the recovery efforts for the oil spill in the Gulf Coast. Growing up in south Louisiana and spending our summers on the Florida coast, we know this is where our heart is. We want to help bring awareness to the devastation through our companies efforts. We came up with our company name, the "SEA sisters", not only because our names spell "SEA" {Sarah + Emily + Ashley}, but also because of our love of the ocean & the memories we have from our time at the beach. Our family beach trips to the Gulf over the years have made us closer as a family and have created the foundation that our company has grown from.

One of our newest projects is making some AMAZING t-shirts to bring some brand awareness to our situation, while also support the recovery efforts in the Gulf Coast. The t-shirt idea grew out of a connection with a family friend's company...(wepilates.com). We Pilates is an AWESOME company that sells clothing for pilates/yoga wear. You should definitely check them out! The owner has also very generously offered to help mentor us on starting a new biz & on how to be successful young women in this crazy world! These are the sorts of people that God has placed in our lives to help us along the way and we couldn't be more grateful for her help and support. We are meeting with her Saturday to talk about our shirt design ideas and are very anxious to hear all of her wisdom! The shirts will likely have our "Sea sisters" logo on the front and something on the back about our companies efforts in supporting the Gulf Coast. These are not your typical T's...they are amazingly soft and wonderful and we are looking forward to making them available to ALL very soon!

Emily and Sarah will be together this weekend in Baton Rouge working on all of our projects and are sure to have LOTS of updates for you after the weekend!!! STAY TUNED!
