Some of the items seen on this site are exclusively ours!
The concept of Uptown Flamingo originated in 1999.
Uptown Flamingo is the original internet site
devoted entirely to flamingo items!

Other companies may have had a few flamingo items back then
and our success has spawned 'copy-cat' sites since, but none with the
variety of products, customer service and committment to excellence
you'll find at Uptown Flamingo!

Wall Street Journal
and have been publicized with a full page article in
People Magazine.

Insight Magazine,
and newspapers in the U.S. and Canada, including:
the Midland Reporter-Telegram,
the Odessa American,
the Washington Post,
the Wichita Eagle,
the San Francisco Chronicle,
the Spokane Spokesman-Review,
the Louisville Courier-Journal,
the Tampa Tribune,
the San Jose Mercury News,
the Maryland Beachcomber,

and the Toronto Star .

Uptown Flamingo has also been featured in television segments on:
KOSA-TV and KMID-TV;

and written about on the web by:

As we continue to grow,
maintaining our high standards of customer service is the goal.
We are committed to bringing you new and exciting products,
excellent service and fair prices
Your support and feedback shows us that we are meeting these goals
and for that we do thank you.


Clicking on 'Products' on the above menu
will show you the different departments
where you may view all of our flamingo merchandise.
You'll quickly find your way around the pages
using the menus at the top.
Items can easily be added to your shopping cart
by clicking the 'Add to Cart' button.
Whenever you'd like to see the items you have chosen,
add or remove items or check out,
simply click on the 'View Cart' button
(that little flamingo with a shopping cart)
or the 'Shopping' button from the top menu;
you can either checkout or view the subtotal of the items in your cart.

You'll have a choice of continuing to shop
or 'checking out' by clicking the 'Purchase' button.
There is always a merchandise total shown for the products you have chosen,
so you'll know how much you're spending.


We deliver to most locations by UPS
allowing you to choose the option for
Ground, 3 Day Select, 2nd Day Air or Next Day Air.
Shipping charges are not based on the amount you spend
but on the actual weight of the items and the size of the box.

just 'CLICK' on the small picture.
You'll be shown an enlargement with measurements and other information.
If you need additional information, there is an email link on each page
and we'd be happy to provide any pertinent information that we can.

Our cart system employs 'cookies':
small files that simply permit information
to be held temporarily on your computer
(they don't transmit anything to us!),
allowing the cart to work properly.
If you add items to the cart and they are NOT there when you look again,
check your security option to allow 'cookies'
and that should clear it up.
Take a look around and enjoy the shopping!

What do our customers have to say about us?
Rebecca L. says: Parcel arrived today. Thank you for such fabulous service! I have to order in small amounts at a time - if the order total (including freight) comes to more than $250 Australian Dollars, our government will charge me a HUGE amount of tax. Thank you again. Excellent service!
Melinda S. says: Everything that I have ordered from Uptown Flamingo has far surpassed my expectations. The customer service has always been exceptional. I have been shopping here since the launch of the website, and have been amazed to watch the inventory simply explode!
DeVona T. says: I Love all the items you have offered in the years that I have shopped with you. We know there is no other site that offers what you do. I enjoy everything I have ordered and I will be ordering the weather vane and the mats for my car. We have a complete house on the table rock lake in Missouri, everything is pink and lots and lots of Flamingos from all of our travels. Love your store...
Nancy B. says: Just wanted to say "Thank you" for your wonderful website. I have been shopping with you for two or three years now and have always been thrilled with my goodies and today was no exception! The purse is wonderful - everything fits perfectly without any unsightly bulges. The plant stand is to die for! I should have ordered the flamingo pots....probably next time. The magnets are already holding my favorite "fantasy" picture of Hawaii...in case you hadn't figured it out yet, I'm very happy. Thanks again for Uptown Flamingo and keep up the incredibly good work!
Cindy B. says: I got my order today. Everything is FABULOUS!!! I can't wait to surprise friends with tuna pasta made with flamingos. Keep finding the fun stuff!
Stacy S. says: Thanks for combining my orders and saving me money on the shipping! Actually it was my fault. I ordered the candle and then realized too late that this was also the website where I had seen the watch. I didn't know how to let you know to combine the orders so I figured I was just stuck paying the shipping twice. Thank you very much for your vigilance and assistance! After this excellent example of customer service I will be sure to patronize your business again-especially since my daughter loves flamingoes!
Anne-Marie C. says: As a collector of these fine feathered friends I am so happy to have found this site. You have such a great variety of flamingo items and I am sure there is alot more to come (am still looking for someone who makes flamingo blank checks and not a set of birds with only one flamingo and three other feathered friends). Keep up the good work!!!
Courtney H. says: i know i just sent an email...but i just had to add that I wish i could buy everything on here!!:) when i am old enough to drive i am totally going to deck my car out with flamingo things and you dont know how happy i was when i saw that you now have FLAMINGO CAR MATS!!!!!!
Connie L. says: Hey, I know I sent you a lot of feedback, howevere its easy to get excited about all of the great flamingo items I have purchased. I tell people ALL the time about your website when they see one of my many items. I have a request though. A lot of websites let you leave a "buy later" or "wish list" and I was wondering if you could add this feature? In other words, could you give me the option of instead of saying "remove" say "save for later". Sometimes you get sticker shock and decide you better "remove" something. It would be nice to be able to go back to the site and remember what it was that I still wanted to buy. I think this would be good for sales for you too! Keep up the awesome work and keep those buyers buying!!!!
Maggie L. says: I am a Fla-mingo-a-love-them! I live in Florida and am so happy to live in the State where the Flamingos roam! Well, almost roam! The first Flamingo site I check is yours! You have EVERYTHING! I enjoy Uptown Flamingo products! I've purchased more than the shower curtain! Many items - one comes to mind, I bought a pants outfit, plain green capris and the jacket has a couple of mingos on the front and one on the left shoulder! I enjoy wearing it! I work at a school and everyone knows me as the flamingo lady! I've told many people about this web/shopping site. Thank you for your superb items! When I'm not able to buy anything, I bookmark it and go back to it when I can!
Linda L. says: I have lots of stuff from uptownflamingo. If I were rich I would have alot more. I just love Flamingos Why?? Sometimes they are Beautiful Elegant And Other Times just fun and silly. And PINK I love pink! My grand daughters love their Christmas Stockings. Thank You for selling "Happy"
Doris F. says: I don't' buy that much, but what I have bought I always get compliments from my friends and they always ask where I got it. I tell them "UPTOWN FLAMINGO"!!
Connie C. says: I order quite frequently on Uptown Flamingo. I love your products. I have never received any item that was not spectacular. My orders are always received in a more than timely manner.
Billie R. says: I love your stuff and have bought several things already. Keep up the great job. My addiction to flamingos started with a Pink Satin Jock Strap from Fredericks of Hollywood some gave me years ago as a joke and here we are ... now i collect flamingos. Thanks again.
