Preparing for the Big Festival this Sunday!

See Fire Inspired Poi at the Highlands Festival

With the Highlands Street Festival just around the corner, we are excited to be launching hot new brands that we will be carrying at the boutique.

Over the course of the week, we will share what is happening this Sunday at our shop, as well as events that will be taking place in Highlands throughout the day.

Last year we were new to Highlands and didn't really know what to expect... and WOW, it was an eye-opener!

"This is no penny carnival.  This is big!"

For a day filled with everything from an incredible variety of vendors to facepainting to musicians to events like Fire Inspired Poi and Horse & Wagon rides, it will be a heck of a good time with lots of interesting shopping, food and fun to be had.

At Apple Box Boutique & Sugar Blossoms Floral Design, one of our many festival features will be Cravings Artisan Gelato.  If you missed it at our April "Late Night" event, this is your chance to try fresh-made all-natural authentic Italian gelato at its finest.  There is no way to describe how ridiculously delicious this is.

Owner Charlynn studied in Italy, staying for months at a time to perfect her flavours, and believe us when we say she got it right!

Save the Date:  Sunday, June 3rd! 
Then watch this blog and our FB page for more about the fun we'll be having at the boutique!

See you there!

♥,

Apple Box Boutique

Late Night on the Ave

Tonight is the night... all the merchants in Highlands get together again for great deals, meals and entertainment along 112th ave.

The sun is shining the sky is blue... celebrate at Apple Box Boutique with Italian artisan Gelato (ice cream in Easter Colours!), discounts on home decor, and pick up your Easter flower arrangements and bouquets in-store from floral designer Leslie Ayers of Sugar Blossoms Floral Design... then Hop, Skip and Jump along the ave for more savings:

"Late Night on the Ave": April 5th

We just love Late Night on the Ave!  We always meet so many lovely people and are looking forward to another great evening on Thursday, April 5th.

This month we are very excited to be featuring Cravings Artisan Gelato.  If you haven't heard about this incredibly yummy treat yet, now is your chance to become addicted like the rest of us.

Owner Charlynn has taken gelato (Italian ice-cream), sorbetto's  and even alcohol based gelato to the next level.  She is fully mobile and offers up her delicious wares for weddings and events.

Not only can you select flavours and colours to compliment your big day, but the choices are made with fresh fruit and all-natural ingredients.

Stop in at the boutique for this month's Late Night on the Ave and get eggs-ellant discounts (couldn't help myself) on home decor and florals by Sugar Blossoms, and try Cravings Artisan Gelato... in Easter colours!

Then Hop, Skip and Jump along 112th for fantastic entertainment, wagon rides through historic Highlands (named by This Old House as one of Canada's 10 Best Neighbourhoods of Old Homes) along the river valley, plus not-to-be-missed deals being offered up by the local merchants:

We're looking forward to seeing you on April 5th!
