You are here


A lot going on around here. November & December.

Can you believe it? Here come the holidays & the snow. One million holiday shows, fairs, events & parties. We will make it thru all of it, we always do & in February we will be missing all the excitement.

46th & Grand, South Minneapolis. What a corner!!!

When I first opened the ColorWheel Salon & Gallery 8 years ago, I never thought that this corner would become such a Hotspot. Cafe Ena opened a few years ago. It is great to have such good neighbors &  Delicious food right next store.
