CURRENTLY:
I'm very happy to announce that Great Lake Treasures is available at Flowers by Ray and Sharon! They are "Family Owned and Operated - Muskegon's Largest Full-Service Florist - Michigan Retail Florist of the Year." They stock a fantastic selection of gifts, not to mention that the staff there will bend over backwards to help you get what you need!! The care that goes into the flowers is incredible! https://www.flowersbyrayandsharon.com/about.htm 3807 Apple Avenue, Muskegon, MI 49442 -- just east of Mill Iron (only six minutes from US - 31). COME OUT AND MEET THE NEW OWNERS - The Poulias family took over the business in Summer 2025.
NOTE: I have a NEW FACEBOOK business page -- GREAT LAKE Treasures, LLC (note the capital letters). My personal page was stolen, so I could no longer access my business page. For some reason, FB didn't delete the page, so you can still see it, but I can't post anything to it. So I created a new page with the same name, but more capital letters. The new page is: GREAT LAKE Treasures, LLC
Other LOCATIONS to find GREAT LAKE Treasures:
Sadly, the Christmas Arts and Crafts Show at Central Park Place is no longer. I will have my unique "Beach Scene Ornaments" at the Vanity Room - 2190 Whitehall Rd., Ste D, North Muskegon, MI - starting Oct. 10, 2025. Check back for possible future locations.
