Welcome to Happy Hatters Boutique! My name is Deb Larimore, (Countess Toot ‘N Tinkle to you Red Hatters) and I am the owner of Happy Hatters. More importantly I have been a red hatter myself for about 5 years now and I’m still having a ball! We originally started our business almost 5 years ago as a home based business with an e-commerce site and a “traveling boutique”. Our next venture was a mail order catalog. I know I personally love to catalog shop so I was hoping the rest of you hatters would too. I think I was right- since the catalog has been a huge success. But my real dream was always to open a retail store. My dream came true in December of 2005 when we opened Happy Hatters Boutique in Lima, Ohio. Our retail store gives our customers a chance to look, touch, and play dress up! And that they do! We also offer luncheons with entertainment in our “Play Room”. And needless to say, the ladies have loved it! There is quite a bit of silliness that goes on there! This business has been a true blessing for me. I have been so fortunate to have my son Brenton managing the business for me. (He moved back from Tampa, Florida to “just help me get things started”). That was almost 5 years ago and he’s still here, working 6-7 days a week and “living the red hat dream” as he so often says! We have recently added two new members to our “Happy Hatters family”. I am pleased to introduce to you, Danielle Schroeder and Sonya Wilson. They have without a doubt, made us even “happier” at Happy Hatters! I know they will do a great job in providing the best customer service possible! So once again, thank you so much for shopping with us and for your patience with us as we grow. We really do appreciate your business! And if any of you are ever near Lima, Ohio please stop by and visit us. We would love to meet you! Deb (Countess Toot ‘N Tinkle)

Brenton Basinger – Chief Operating Officer Brenton Basinger is the eldest son of Happy Hatters Boutique Founder/CEO Deb Larimore. Since early childhood Brenton had always dreamed of someday working at a Red Hat shop in Lima Ohio. Ok, so maybe that was not exactly his plan. After serving in the United States Air Force Brenton moved to Tampa Florida. He gained experience working in the technology sector for companies such as AOL and AT&T Global Network Services. In 2003 he packed up and moved back to Lima Ohio to help his Mother, Countess Toot ‘N Tinkle start Happy Hatters Boutique. Brenton has been with Happy Hatters from the start and plans to continue working diligently to provide customers with great service and reasonably priced red hat products far into the future.!
