 A message from Dee Dear Customers, I want to pause today and reach out to our loyal customers. I understand that there is a lot of concern for you and your safety and well-being during these difficult times. Per Michigan's Governor Gretchen Whitmer's mandate we've closed Rapunzel's for the time being. If you signup for our newsletter, we'll send you a note when we reopen. Until then, I hope you stay safe and healthy.  Dee Ruggirello
