The story behind Dainty Gator! I worked for the Florida Gators athletic department for 7 years and got a Masters degree from UF. I like dainty things. Welcome to my booth!

Meet Kara!

Kara is the lady behind The Dainty Gator.
Kara likes colorful things.
Kara likes happy things.
Kara apparently also likes gators.

Kara came to The Porch today.
Kara brought gators.
Not real gators... thankfully. (Although that would have been cool!)
Kara brought gator soaps.
Kara started giving them away.

And now WE have custody of the gators.

Make a purchase from The Dainty Gator and we're sending one of these little guys home with you FREE while supplies last!
