Twin Cities Minnesota Pretty in ink is going out of business. I just received an e-mail, and they will be closing the end of March. :(

Ahhhhhhh that's sad. I've never been there but heard great things about the place. Maybe I'll have to take a jaunt over there.

I was there once and business seemed pretty slow. That's just too bad. Maybe I'll have to pop over there and see if there are any deals to be found.

This is really sad! I remember when they were in the smaller space. The store was overflowing! The new spot was nice but I liked the old one better. I'm really sorry to hear they are closing!

Default New Road

I have often driven from St. Paul out to Blaine for this store. The last time I went I figured that they were doomed. Business always seemed slow, but with the change in access to the store because of the change in the highway it was very difficult to get to them.

You hate to see any business close, but the craft places are going to have it hard.
