I drove by this place after battling the crazy crowd in the Flower Mart and its adjacent stores the entire Saturday morning. I noticed this place had its own parking lot for customers (woohoo! FREE parking for customers in this area? Score!) so I thought to turn in and check it out (since parking's free, i had nothing to lose, even if i dont buy anything).
Wow! GREAT PRICES on ribbons, especially in comparison to the one-stop floral supply shops right inside of Flower Mart!
Here are some price examples of things I bought from them:
1) 5/8" grosgrain ribbons, 50 yards/ roll, $3
(Michaels has similar ribbons at $3 but only 8 yards!)
2) 5/8" satin ribbon, 100 yards/roll, $4.35
3) "Bling" ribbon, $2 per yard, or $11 for a 10 yard roll. Michaels has this also but for $12, you get 6 yards. The "big store" inside Flower Mart sells this for $4.95 a yard!!! Yikes!
(see picture. Not sure what you call these but it's those 'bling bling' ribbon you see florist put on vases etc, very popular nowadays. I only bought 2 yards - but now i wish i had gotten the whole roll! A girl can never have too much bling, right? :p I was in ribbon heaven when i saw their prices, especially left Flower Mart and still remember how much Flower Mart stores charged for ribbons!
This store carries mostly ribbons and laces, and some other trimming and findings. It doesnt carry all the party or floral supply like other supply stores inside the Flower Mart but if you are looking for ribbons and the "bling" ribbon, come check them out. read more
