    I found Lena's Alternations and I had my graduation stole embroidered with both of my degrees and class of 2026!!! The service was amazing, exactly what I was looking for. And for the price!? $50 for all three which is was cheaper than everywhere else. Also I was able to pick the font and size I wanted and there was not any surprises what it was going to look like. If you need something embroidered go here. Highly recommend and will be coming back in the future !

    I cannot say enough about Charlene and her incredible talent. We came to her under serious time…read morepressure after an overseas dress order fell through just days before prom, leaving us scrambling to find a solution. We walked in to find a waiting room full of people, yet Charlene graciously squeezed us in without hesitation. She carefully saw and pinned the dress on the spot, assessed exactly what needed to be done, and promised it would be ready in two days. True to her word, my daughter picked up the dress on Wednesday, three days before prom, and it was absolutely perfect. Not just good, perfect. Charlene is a true gem and a remarkable talent. In one of the most stressful moments of prom season she delivered flawlessly and with such warmth and professionalism. If you are looking for someone you can trust completely with something that truly matters, look no further. We are so grateful for her! ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    Charlene is truly amazing--a real gem of a human! After searching extensively for a seamstress who…read morespecializes in wedding dress alterations, I found Style Cleaners, and the reviews absolutely live up to the experience. Charlene took the time to walk me through every detail of what needed to be done to my dress and was incredibly transparent about pricing from the start. Her passion for what she does really shines through, and it made the whole process feel so reassuring and special. I'm so grateful to have found her!
