Topaz Dandelion

Topaz Dandelion is proud to announce we have been selected as an Area Retail Partner for Cardthartics greeting cards (Made in Illinois). You can find a great selection in True Norths' expansion ... just look for the Post Office storefront.

As much as we miss hugging and hanging with extended family and friends during this Pandemic, they miss us, too! Until we can reach out with our arms again, we can reach out with cards.

Each month Topaz Dandelion will select a "Card of the Month" and offer ways to help you make a difference in our world. Is someone you care about struggling with isolation due to the Pandemic? Do you know a family that is having financial issues? Is there an essential worker who is feeling overwhelmed or has touched your life? ... The Card of the Month has a great message on the front, and is blank inside .... perfect for your caring words & personal touch. ❣️

Let's all take time to write a note of encouragement, and spread the LOVE not the VIRUS.

Tonight is the night to stay up late, True North gives you permission! When the clocks hits 12:01 am, our doors will open once again! We will be open 24 hours straight, so stop in anytime!

Who remembers Care Bears from the 80’s?

In case you haven’t noticed, at True North we really love our “bear friends,” such as Yogi the Bear. So today when this picture popped into my newsfeed I thought Yogi and some of my True North friends might enjoy the company of this little bear, too.

Here in IL we woke up to snow, but the sun is peeking through the clouds, and Funshine Bear is trying to remind us it is Spring.

FYI. Original Care Bears were: Bedtime Bear, Birthday Bear, Cheer Bear, Friend Bear, Funshine Bear, Good Luck Bear, Grumpy Bear, Love-a-lot Bear, Tenderheart Bear, and Wish Bear. Which bear describes you the best?

As we comply to the "social distancing" order, how are you filling your days???

Why not take a 'walk down memory lane.'. It's a perfect time to dig thru old photos, keepsakes, and high school memorabilia. Share your stories with family and friends.

Here's some old photos from the past ... thanks True North for sharing!

Topaz Dandelion has relocated at True North and lots of fun items are filling the new space! Tin molds, balls of vintage yarn, Halloween journal kits, and some really cool local cookbooks from the 70's are just a few of the new items. Several more trips of eclectic treasures are expected weekly ... gearing up for our fall shoppers 🍁🌻🍂 and of course, Corn Fest 🌽 🎃 💛

Topaz Dandelion is blessed to be part of this awesome team .......💛 🐻 🌼
