I was over in Laurel Heights the other day to get new tires for my Jeep when it struck me...isn't there a killer ribbon store over here somewhere? So, I pulled out my trusty iphone (which I have decided, I cannot live without) and looked it up, The Ribbonerie popped up so when the new rubber was ready to hit the road I headed over.I knew from the window out front that what I was about to enter was something of a ribbon dreamland and it did not disappoint. The owner of the store was super helpful when I told her what I was looking for and let me take all the time I wanted to poke around. This shop has the most amazing antique fixtures, things that were specifically made for spools of ribbon and sewing goods. There is a wall of vintage millinery feathers, german velvet leaves and fruit and so many other goodies; it was a kaleidoscope of color for the eyes. I picked up a couple things for a class I am taking next weekend and was on my way, but you know what? I will be back for sure!

That place leaves me breathless and is also one of the most dangerous stores out there for my change purse.
Glad you had fun! : )
You nailed it!
Highway to the Danger Zone!
