I think I saw something about it, and maybe I heard something about June? But honestly, I'm not really sure since I tend to forget stuff like that almost immediately!

A couple of years back, I bought some from a woman out in Siberia for $5 a sprig. She actually threw in some extra clippings for free, so the total cost was even lower. It was excellent quality—really fragrant. I have no idea if she's still selling, though.

www.stefanie.com they have some pretty similar styles over at Vera Wang if you want to take a look, plus there's a boutique right in Indianapolis. Honestly, I'm not totally sure who's stocking Demeter though.

I think Isabella’s wedding invitations in Indianapolis say they have Demetrius...

They do have some, though it’s pretty limited—just a handful of models available...

I actually have an uncle down in Florida who just sent me an entire sprig this past Thursday. He wrapped it tightly in newspaper to keep it from drying out and mailed it out the same day. My sisters and I used it for our graduation decorations, and honestly, it was absolutely perfect.
That is my best advice for you.🙂

..p.s. I’ll gladly drive a $17 bus if you're buying me a coffee, and that's all it'll cost you.😍

I have neighbors down on Cape Cod with some amazing rosemary, but trying to get it shipped via bus is a total nightmare🙂)
If your uncle happens to have any extra rosemary he'd be willing to send for a decent price, let me know🙂)

If you still have her info, shoot me a DM.🙂

From what I hear, they’re aiming for after Easter, though who knows if anything actually happens. Meanwhile, they're opening another new room over at VK.

Does anyone here know someone who sings in church? Like, a choir, a small group, or something similar?

Wait, another one? Or are you talking about that Baron Trenk thing (you know, the boss version)?

I haven't heard a peep about any other 🤷

It's not just opening oneself Baron Trenk—it's Boss, plus someone else entirely.
Something new 🙂
I won't say much more yet; it should happen after Easter, so we'll see how things unfold.
Shoot me a DM if you want to know more! 😉

I finally have the green light to let you all know that we’re opening a 500-capacity hall right where Bosina Baron Trenk used to be. Just to be clear, this isn't connected to the Boss—it's a new venture, and while we don't have a name for it yet, we'll start with this one space and hopefully add a second one soon. They're currently renovating, so it’s going to be a huge step up from what was there before. We’re aiming to be up and running by May or June!
Feel free to shoot me a DM if you want more details! 😉

Please...
It was about time they fixed that place. What did that room even look like?
Those industrial halogen lights were the worst—everything looked so pale and washed out under them. I really hope they get rid of those first.

This goes for the other ladies too.

oops...my bad...but I asked here because we're talking about salons in the Midwest. I just needed it without the photo.🙂

Hey everyone. I’ve been counting down the days until I could finally wrap up work and head over to Harkanj to grab supplies for my lapel pins. I was expecting a goldmine—everyone keeps raving about how much they have in stock and how cheap it all is... but honestly? I just left feeling totally bummed out. The prices are basically the same as what we pay back home, and the quality is absolute garbage. Not much selection either. My mom and grandma went along for the ride, so at least their trip wasn't a total waste, but I specifically went there for one thing 😢

How did I manage? Well, I was actually there about ten days ago—I picked up 10 rolls of organza in the exact shades I’d been hunting for, specifically peach, champagne, and rose, plus some floating candles and a few other little trifles. The organza was only $12 10 bucks; I honestly couldn't find anything close to that price anywhere else in the States. I headed back again this past Monday and grabbed that satin ribbon I want to use for the lapel bows $3.25 25 yards.
The woman actually keeps this massive warehouse of fabrics right at her house—you can find just about anything there, really... hundreds of rolls of tulle, mesh, organza, and even those specialty linings in colors I don't think I've ever seen before, not to mention floral accents, lapel trinkets, candles... you name it.
She can put together custom lapels for you at $1.00 per piece, though she already billed me for my material costs a couple of months back—it came out to roughly $73 for 300 pieces.

Bob was just renting the space there... Now that he's gone, other people are running the show. 🙂
As soon as things get updated, I'll post some photos!

She even walked me through the warehouse, but she charged me for the ribbon $5.00 It was the color I wanted, though. She didn't have that wide, mesh-style ribbon in my shade, and those foam leaves were just terrible. In the end, I grabbed some silk leaves because they actually looked decent, but I'm only using them for bracelets. For lapel pins, I need smaller pieces, and like I said, the foam ones weren't it. No green leaves, no frost-like accents for the lapels... I don't know, they just didn't have what I needed. Plus, those leaves at Hobby Lobby are $1.75 12 per pack, while hers are $1.25 so I'm not sure how much I'm really saving here. Those silk ones I picked up came in a pack of 80 $18.

Has anyone traveled through Canada lately? I'm wondering about the availability of supplies like lapel materials, tulle, and things like that.
