Welcome to The Forest Needle

I just discovered there is a new shop in Lake Forest, Illinois.  It's called the Forest Needle. Here's a bit about it.  Note that the video at the top of the article isn't about the shop, but right under the video on the left, click on "Photo Gallery" and you'll be able to explore the shop a little.

There isn't a website that I can find but Forest Needle has a Facebook page.  Head over if you are a member and Like them.
