Established in 1998, About Face Designs™ has come to be known as an industry leader in lifestyle products. In 2015 the company initiated a creative strategy that would transition our product line to a more functional, fashion oriented and trendy offering over a three-year period. At the same time, we committed to maintaining our core mission statement of offering high quality products at an outstanding value with excellent customer service.
Over the past 3 years, and in line with our new creative strategy, there has been a significant shift from smaller décor items to functional product and fashion accessories including barware, baby items, pet product, women’s accessories, men’s gifts and much more. Constantly evolving and changing with market trends the company introduces hundreds of fresh, new designs annually.
More excitement is in store for the second half of 2018 as we expand our successful product lines with many new categories including yoga mats, baby snack containers, dog collars, gym bags, shower caddies, acrylic picture frames and much more! And mid-year 2018 promises to be the best new product launch ever for About Face Designs as we further build on our past success!
Summer is the time of year when so many cherished memories are made! We often reminisce of days on the front porch listening to the crickets chirp & watching the lightening bugs twinkle against the night sky! Long, glorious days at the lake or family vacations at the beach are always close to our hearts and bring a smile to our face. We absolutely love this time of year at Beachcombers and it is wonderful memories just like these that inspired our new Home and Gift designs. We’ve taken current trends, polished them with coastal charm and refreshed our bestselling collections! Our goal for Summer 2018 is to offer newness that enhances our current assortment, allowing customers to build upon their favorite Beachcombers collections. We know that merchandising is key and fabulous new pieces to an already favorite collection are hard to pass up!
We have worked hard to deliver the complete, coastal lifestyle assortment and we hope it floats your boat as much as it does ours! We love going the extra mile with unique finishes and intricate details to make our product unique to BCL! We often refer to our designs as functional works of art! Listed below are just a few of the trends we can’t wait for you to see!
